Software Developer Built Curvature Website to Find the Fun Roads

Did anyone see the Car and Driver story about Curvature?

Curvature generates a map highlighting the most twisty roads, all across the world.

"Curvature helps those who enjoy twisty roads (such as motorcycle or driving enthusiasts) find promising roads that may not be well known. It works by looking at the geometry of every road segment and adding up how much length of the road is sharp corners, broad sweeping curves, and straight areas. The most twisty segments can then be viewed on the web or downloaded as KML map files that can be viewed in Google Earth."


The actual website is https://roadcurvature.com/.

I wish it wasn't so accurate for Oklahoma and the dearth of twisty roads here.

The ones near me are in rhe closed area of the wildlife refuge. And they are dirt roads.

Exactly Sugarwood.

People drive days to find a few extra curves when there are hundreds the moment you leave the road.

Interesting software.

I can drive a few miles east on Memorial road and find both of the curves near me! We have wonderful roads for breaking in new brake pads in my area. A stop sign pretty much one mile apart in a straight line, and just a few cars on the road.

Dirt bikes tend to get the rider dirty, and the air conditioning sucks!
