I live on the crossroads of HW 66 and I-35, so I let the mood choose the route. Some days I like to go fast with rock and roll blasting on the radio, some days I like to just mosey along on a county road with the radio off. The Harley Bagger is a comfortable ride slow or fast.

50 / 50

A little of both. Best riding for me however is at a nice pace on any road when I can keep the cruise engaged on either of my bikes and not have to worry about switching lanes etc. We live on an island and to get to the nice roads in WA and OR states we have to take the slab or it would take forever to get there.

Personally, I prefer secondary highways to interstates. I'll use interstates if there are no other reasonable alternatives or if I have to eat a lot of miles in a hurry.

Highways if I am actually going somewhere like to work.

Back roads if I'm just out for a ride.

Two lane, scenic is the best for me and the OL when she is along.

Super slab to get from point A to point B to do the two lane...
