First Time on the Twisties
Here was my route: http://goo.gl/maps/RK5e0
By far, the most fun I have had on this bike since getting it. Never knew riding in the mountains could be so exhilarating. I was sad when I got down the mountain and I could see a neighborhood, I thought, "I am just getting started!" Nevertheless, very fun, plus no traffic on the roads which made it even better. |

Welcome to the mountains!
Not sure what the roads are like down south, but for some real fun, come on up north and play in the Sierras. Lots of tight twisty roads along the CA/NV border.

I believe it! So Cal has some decent roads, but nothing too amazing. Fun enough for the noobs!

jealous of the crap you guys get out there. looks like fun
the only real good mountain twisty road is a good 2 hours away, and it's peanuts compared to that route. I'd be on that road every day if I lived that close to it. |

There are plenty of great roads in New England. You need to search more. Mountains 2 hours away from Boston, that ride is 4 hours away from San Diego with the traffic in CA.
