There are so many that is is tough to single out just a few. You have to remember that the terrain here is generally mountainous so if you like winding twisty roads, uphill and down, we got 'em.......
My experience is limited to rideing mainly on Vancouver island. Perhaps some one from the mainland can offer more.....

I love the Duffy Lake Road. A great one or two day ride, longer if you're into it...

Most of us living out here know about this book, "Destination Highways, British Columbia." Those of you who haven't, I suggest that you check out their website: http://www.destinationhighways.com/default.htm Good stuff contained in there, certainly worth investigation for those of you not familiar with our province.

Best riding roads in BC
hi,
the best ride I ever had so far was driving the "sunshine circle" from north vancouver take the ferry "s north from horseshoe bay to ferry to langdale then Gibsons landing then ferry to powell river then cross the strait to comox then south on the island to nanaimo then back to vancouver. Absolutely beautiful ride!!!! If you need more info just google it lots of info available. Very different experince going on and off the ferries as well. you can be last one to show up and still be 1st on and 1st off which can keep the cages travelling behind you all the time!!!
