PHL International Airport

© Devyn Haas

A few years ago I was looking for roads on Google maps within the Philly limits. I scanned the long stretch of park that is Fairmount and along the rivers before finding one of the greatest high speed secrets behind the airport. Aside from a few bumps the road is near perfect, complete with chicanes and go-fast sweepers. Armed with 2 GoPros and my Canon, Todd, Justin and I took a few stills and some video.

    As you stated, other than that one huge bump early on, the airport loop is excellent and the road condition is fantastic! It has been a favourite of mine for years!

    Great photos and video, BTW!

    Thanks, I’m glad everyone enjoyed the video/pictures. There will definitely be more of these (both mediums) in the near future.

    ha, i rode my buddies ducati the other night, and then got back on my cb500… I can see why you are over vintage bikes.

  16. andrew says:

    That’s exactly what happened to me andrew. I was in an action movie as far as I’m concerned.
