Here are three that come to mind immediately.

- West Saanich to left on Prospect Lake Road, right on Munns Road to Millstream Lake Road to Millstream.  The ends up near Western Speedway.  This is somewhat residential, so don't speed too much, but the road is quite fun.  Lots of elevation changes, narrow road, and off camber tight turns.  Back in the day I actually had a car stuck on my bumper.  Turned out it was a Ferrari.

- Metchosin Road to Rocky Point Road to East Sooke Road to Gillespie, then back via Sooke Road.  I always stop at East Sooke Park though.

- Drive between Port Alberni and Tofino

Good times on that road....my buddy and I used to race around there in our old vw's...its awesome at night since you can see if other cars are coming by seeing their headlights.

I've started driving that route quite a bit lately...some nice beaches to stop at and have some coffee, burn a joint and then drive back

I'd like to hear of some other cool routes as well though

All definitely good roads... if the Tofino road wasn't hours away, I'd drive it all the time

Oh yeah, and smoking pot is morally wrong, and whoever partakes in the consumption of marijuana is a complete and total tool.

No, 240 for life beyatch! Hells yeah, my JDM 180sx with LHD conversion, KA24E swap, and USDM 240sx badging! It was Jordan Gladmans idea, man that guy just can't stay off the cutting edge!

By the way, smoking dope is the best.
