Where is your favorite place to ride to?

#1 Unread post by motorcycleartist »

I live in California in a town called Twain Harte. It is about 16 miles do north of Yosemite but the road to Yosemite is 90 miles long. I love riding my 2005 Kawasaki Concourse there and I also love to ride to the coast to Alice's restaurant, a great place with a lot of very cool bikes and cars. Lots of great bikers too. :kicking:

Gregory,

Welcome to the Total Motorcycle forum and thank you for sharing your favorite ride. I bet most of us wish we had a chance to ride into Yosemite, I certainly do.

Safe Travels,
Richard

Hello Greg, and welcome to the forum. I'd have to say my favorite ride is to someplace new. I'd like to do Skyline Drive, The Blue Ridge Parkway, and Deals Gap. Around here K-5, Mo-116, CR-JJ. Cheers

Into the West Kootenays in British Columbia, Canada. I live in Alberta where it is pretty flat & straight...love the mountains, rivers & lakes (which makes for some awesome twisty roads!)

Funny enough I'll say EAST of Calgary where it's flat and straight, where the road stretches to the horizon to meet endless blue skies and the farm fields full of yellow canola seem to go on forever...

OR

Give me the twisty roads of the UK which were drawn by children, where speed limits are scary too fast, where blind corners meet, sheep outnumber people and the rolling green hills meet up with a little pop. 500 town every 15 mins.

I loved the trip I did north this summer. up state hwy 75 through Ketchum, over Galena summit, and into the Sawtooth national forest.
South on 93 to Las Vegas was also a blast (excluding running out of gas between Wells and Ely (McGill)

I like riding anywhere I've not been and a few places I've already seen.
