Well there are 2 I know of, 917 out of Joshua to Mansfield is good but U have to know the road (potholes and crap) and then there is Highway 56 I think, out past Rio Vista. I have been meaning to look for more but I hate to go out alone and wipe out on some lonely road

another one i found is 157 at Venus. Take it towards 287, its a few good miles, road is in good shape too, i usually ride out there on mondays. 51 where it joins 205 or keeps going towards 67 is way better than 56, Ive been all up and down 56 and the 5 miles on 51 is way better than any part of 56 I've ever been on.

Yes they are, but there are too many things I can't do on a bike that I can do in my car.

1. Beat other bikes. (Rookie rider.)

2. Drive in the rain.

3. Grocery store.

4. Go to work.

etc etc.. Not saying they don't have their moments, but for me right now the car makes more sense.
