Just go. Wherever you want.
See what the road brings to you.
Overcome that challenge.
That's the spirit of riding.

Page Mill - Skyline - 9 - 236 - China Grade - Jamison Creek - Empire - Smith Grade - Bonny Doon Road - 1 North - Swanton - 1 North again - Gazos Creek - Cloverdale - Stage - Tunitas Creek - King's Mountain - 84 back up - 35 south - Old La Honda Road

That should keep you busy for a few hours.

I would consider taking it easy on the Santa Cruz mountains in the following few weeks. The locals are having a real tough time with the infrastructure- additional passer-by traffic is not going to improve their daily commute.

Get out of the Bay, head south. Hwy 25, 198, Peachtree, Indian Valley, Chimney Rock, Interlake, San Lucas/Lockwood and Carmel Valley Road are in nice shape.

Don't care for riding the SC mountains, I always prefer to go north. The further, the better.

Traffic is terrible everywhere due to arteries being re-routed through the fun twisty bits. Get something with wind protection that can blast you an hour away, it's what I'm doing.

All good roads...

and many good ones even south and east of there.

There is a section on Lombard St. in San Francisco that can be VERY challenging.

Westbound between Franklin and Webster? Yeah those left turning cars are rough.

That route would be modified for me, as I am coming from Pacifica, but I approve of all of the roads listed. :thumbup

The conditions are great for dualsports/sumos right now. :ride

 

[Maddevill]

I heard that Jamison was messed up. Don't know for sure.

 

[jpoppa]

Just go North young man, watch those blind corners though full of standing water....or mud or silt...

 

[jwb]

Was down in San Benito / Fresno / SLO counties. Everything was super fucked up tho. I won't go anywhere without knobbies until late summer this year, probably.
