I thought it might be interesting to have a central repository of everyone's favorite routes. I'm a big fan of interstate road trips, but rarely know where to find nice twisty roads when I'm not near home.

Here's a couple routes most of the MN crew is familiar with:

Here's a route I enjoyed in CO (Granby to estes Park):

Route near in SD near Mt. Rushmore:

Let's see what the rest of you have!

 

Cool idea

Speaking of PCH, here's a fun route I took while visiting Napa. Really wished I had my S for it...

If you ever find yourself in Northern MN, HWY 1 from Tettegouche State Park on Lake Superior (Start in Duluth or Grand Marias) to Ely is a blast!

Route 3

You can street view all these to see what you think too. =P

That SD route looks like it'd be reallly fun. If only it wasn't so far away.

 

Can't forget Tail of the Dragon:

Sault Ste Marie to Thunder Bay (HWY 17 in ON CAN) along the Northern shore of Lake Superior is a great way to spend a day:

A drive to/around Big Bear Lake and Arrowhead Lake in CA is a good time:
