Hwy 14 from Omaha, Arkansas to Mountain View. 129 miles of road riding bliss.

These people have taught me more about riding than any day spent on a track: Larry B, Tony K, Vince J, Mr. Wonderful, V2Neal, Marty F, Kevin B, Devon W, Ehrich, Mike A, John L, Arnell, Kirk, Ray C

Track days are like climbing the rock wall at REI.
Perhaps I need to stop taking the high road.

Back side of Mt Lemmon outside of Tucson, AZ

Good thing the gate was unlocked and that tree across the road was cut up! And the cattle didn't rush me...

+1 on Mt. Lemmon.  I was at Davis-Monthan AFB for a summer and brought my Bandit along - went up and down that mountain road a few times a week.  Just make sure you have enough gas..... 35 miles up and 35 miles down with no gas station at the top...

Needles is great but almost a little toooo tight and those damn RVs!  That section of Beartooth looks fantastic, would love to make it out there.

The best road in the black hills is the Vanocker Canyon Road aka CR26, many do not know of it.  It goes from Nemo down the mountains into Sturgis.  Outstanding road quality and generally no traffic.  Not as tight as some of the other roads but it's 20 miles of banked sweepers with views along the perimeter of the hills. 

I wish I had taken pics but I was busy riding when I was on it.
