You’ll feel a presence on this road. Maybe it’s the
speed tax collector in your rear views. Or the one coming the other way.

Ah, civilization. It’s the price we sometimes pay for lakeside curves,
quality pavement and perfect engineering. Running along the twisty shoreline
of Mara Lake, then leaving the water to meander gracefully through the

putting up with the traffic and STCs. Still, you may want to plan your
presence for when things aren’t quite so civilized. Say, four a.m. In
January.
