Northeast Oregon gets my vote! No traffic, great roads, great scenery, high speed sweepers to tight and twisty, elevation changes, canyons, following rivers, forests, mountains, panoramas... hard to beat. In fact, most of the Pacific NW is great riding.
Virginia's State Route 16
Yes, that should probably be on the list. I rode it on the Mille this fall and had a blast. Those who don't like the Dragon would probably not like 16 though.
I like the Dragon, well, I liked it when it was called Deals Gap. Now that it is called 'The Tail Of The Dragon', it is a carnival. It is hard to enjoy it when it is so crowded. Thus the reason I do not recommend it.
I go only on spring weekdays, so I haven't found it to be anything but extremely fun.
Same thing with The Snake out in SoCal. During the week, I normally have it all to myself. It's a zoo on the weekends.
The Blue Ridge Parkway has nice views but the last time I rode there it was a goat path. The broken pavement, potholes and 40mph speed limit don't make it a top ten motorcycle road, imho. It's a top ten road for scenery...but not a great motorcycle road.
I have ridden all but 9 and 10, so can't say about them..........
Hush Paul , don't be telling them about the Talimena Scenic Byway . No cops , very little traffic , let's keep it that way Dusty
Too late Dusty. The word's out. Here's a shot from this Labor Day:
Here's one of my favorite shots on River Road (#10). That's the Rio Grande in the valley. Big Bend is an amazing area. Everyone should experience it.

A list of the 100 from you spread sheet?Sent from my SM-N950U using Tapatalk
Pacific Coast 1 between Bay Area and Santa Barbara is amazing, but often ruined by traffic. Going north to Oregon border much better, especially on a weekday, but often obscured in fog during the months most people would think of riding it. But on a sunny weekday in October, when big waves are pounding the coast creating one mesmerizing scene after another, there's nothing better.
Remove #4, Tail of the Dragon. Replace it with the Cherohala Skyway.
I was just going to post hwy 36. It's the best of the bunch and very little traffic. I'd give 70 second spot due to the tunnels and the booming Guzzi exhaust note makes it sound like you are being shot out of a cannon! I'd remove highway 1 unless you like being stuck behind an RV doing 10 mph.
that's one I am going to have to try. They say Feb or March is the time to go?
John,I�d ride it late March, early April, or October. You could time the ride so you could catch the MotoGP race in Austin.
I like the road about 2,000 feet from my front door - Angeles Crest Highway.
