I used to live literally 2 miles from where GMR started and would cruise that over to Azuza canyon every week in my Camaro.

That's the beauty of living here. The roads hug the ocean, and they're quite twisty.

If we're assuming there's perfect weather and no traffic, then my choices would probably be:

1) Three Sisters (335, 336, 337).. since it's right in my back yard.
2) PCH.
3) Blue Ridge Parkway
4) That stretch of I-70 that runs from south of Salt Lake City, UT into Denver, CO... not terribly twisty (except maybe in a couple spots,esp. going through the mountain pass in the Rockies), but very scenic and very beautiful.

That's where it's at. At least if you're not considering racetracks.

Good one! I have driven it via car and would have loved to do it on a bike.

CO-550, from Durago to Montrose - The most scenic chunk of road I've ever been on.

Did it in the car before I learned how to ride. I would love to go back, spend time again in Mesa Verde, then loop through Durago, Montrose, and Gunnison, then back home. I'd have to take the time to ride the train from Silverton down to Durango and back...
