I've been known to do that, does help  Where we live in NZ is one of the outer suburbs of Auckland, just in the foothill of the Waitakere Ranges. It's quite easy to just drive past our road and up along some nice twisty roads and enjoy the drive.
Mind you, last time I did that I came home to a burst water hose and a flooded laundry (and a ruined batch of home brew from the thermal shock).
