Have ridden all but these two:Great River Road, Green Mountain Scenic Byway. Gonna have to do the Great River Road soon as it sound very interesting. You up for it John O?

 

[Bama Phil]

I've done 4 of the 10. Still like the area around Seneca Rock through Elkins, WV.

Don't bother with the other one (GREEN Mountain Scenic Byway). One end of it is about 40 miles from my house. I have ridden it many times and I would not rate it in the top 100. Perhaps top ten in Florida, maybe.

 

[Phartz]

I've done six of the ten.

Hey! They left off the Ortega Hwy!

 

[Silver]

3 of ten- need to get on my horse. And yes there are others....

 

[motomac]

The only one I haven't done is The Million Dollar Highway. One of these days.

 

[ST_Jim]

3-1/2?

Going to the Sun road was still snowed in the last time I was up there after WeSTOC Nelson, although I got up to Lake MacDonald. Maybe this next year?

Clearly, the list of best roads/rides MUST include California State Highway 36 from U. S. Route 101 to Red Bluff, or 36 from Red Bluff to 101.

Not to mention they left out the Black Hills and Bighorn Mts..........and Highway 12 in Montana and Idaho, and the alphabet roads in Wisconsin and.....you know, all them roads......even some in my backyard are pretty awesome....ride what you can when you can......ff

 

[flyfisher]

And don't even think about me getting started on Utah.......ff

 

[Bama Phil]

Maybe its just me, but I'm not a fan of the Natchez Trace.

7 of 10. Million Dollar Highway at about 32 degrees, so was just glad to survive.

Have done quite a few more that are far better than the ones I haven't done on this list.

 

[TRNewtown]

Have ridden 7 out of these 10. Makes me want to ride the rest (Great River Road, Green Mountain Scenic Highway, and The Million Dollar Highway). The list does not include some good rides in West Virginia, Vermont, and Northern California.

RockSTOC???

Would love to, if I make it to the event.

 

[vinny]

I've done 6 of the 10, and agree with most, that there are some better. Of course, it maters what type of riding you like. Some like the technical stuff, some like the scenery. If you are like me, you like a mixture of both. I don't like it so technical, you cannot take in the sights.

 

[the Ferret]

7 of the ten. Missing the same ones as TR Newtown, but yea there are a ton of great roads that aren't on that list.

 

[Uncle Phil]

Missed the Green Mountain Scenic Byway, but sounds like I haven't missed much. The road through Lolo Pass (Hwy 12 IIRC) is one of the best. And Kanc up in New Hampshire ain't bad if the road surface is in good condition. The Road from Haines to Haines Junction in Alaska is gorgeous. And the Three Sisters in Texas and all sorts of roads in WV, NC, TN, KY, GA, AR .... the list goes on!

I've ridden 8 of 10. I plan on picking up Going-to-the-Sun Road this summer. Not sure I'll ever ride Green Mountain Scenic Byway.

The Great River Road is a good ride, between Venice, LA and Vicksburg, MS. 200 year old southern plantations, Civil War Battlefields, large oaks with moss, fantastic eats, and fun sweepers between New Orleans and Baton Rouge. North of Vicksburg and south of Memphis, MS the road runs though impoverished farming communities; depressing. I've not ridden it North of Memphis; however, one day I will.

Clearly, the list of best roads/rides MUST include California State Highway 36 from U. S. Route 101 to Red Bluff, or 36 from Red Bluff to 101.

Darn I missed it by 10 miles, I rode 299 from the 101 to Redding along the Trinity river last summer. That was not a bad ride either.
