My Switchback is my first Dyna. Had it a year and a half and ride a lot up Comptche-Ukiah road from home to Comptche and down Flynn Creek road to hgwy 128 then west to the coast and up hgwy 1 back home. Nice mix of scenery, all twisty all the way. I don't have photos to post but you can look up Comptche-Ukiah rd. on youtube and see plenty of videos from idiots on rice burners. I don't think it has been discovered yet by hooligans on dynas.

God where to start on this list....... Most states have lots of awesome rides with few exceptions, just get off the freeway and look for anything resembling hills or mountains and life will be good on 2 wheels. I'm spoiled living in nor cal, get out of the central valley & bay area and it's all riding country.

This is an easy one.

Beartooth/Chief Joseph is the best for me.

I love the area around the Dragon, but, don't particularly like the Dragon itself. If I feel like I want to die, then the Dragon might appeal more.

That said, Moonshine 28, which is right next to the Dragon, is probably 2nd on my list.

Tried to make the Going to the Sun Highway this year, but, the road was still closed. That is a very iffy trip with the Snow and Fires in that area. Beautiful rides to and from though.

Lolo Pass is a great trip, but, again a lot of evidence of fires.

Small slow narrow road but one of the most beautiful spots I've ever seen.

Three way tie for second best. In no particular order....

Creston BC to Revelstoke BC via Kootenay Lake, Kaslo, Nakusp, and Upper Arrows Lake.... Twisty road, lakes, views, ferrys, takes all day

Cody, Chief Joseph, Beartooth, Cody loop .... My favourite town, giant mountain passes, twisty, takes all day

101 & 1 from Port Angeles to Santa Barbara. .... twisty, Ocean, sunsets, sand dunes, beautiful small towns, giant trees, slow roads ... 5/7 days

Number 1?... well, that would be the Road I am riding on, or last rode on....
