Awesome views
Lots of nice long twistie roads from Beeline Hwy. up to Payson. Once you get on 260 heading towards Pine, Strawberry and Camp Verde the twisties get tighter and the elevation get higher. Average traffic to Cottonwood with about 8 roundabouts. Once you get to Cottonwood pick up 89A to Jerome and the twisties get tighter and elevation changes. Great places to stop and enjoy the views. Continue on 89A and take 89 to Prescott. The ride towards Yarnell has a lot of tight twisties to Wickenburg. Coming back towards Phoenix you have several options. Taking 74 towards Pleasant Lake is a nice ride to 17. We chose W. Dove Valley rd to take back to Mesa.
Beautiful rural riding and excellent contrast of scenery from red rock canyons to beautiful sand dunes, to alpine forest and finally the North Rim of a Grand Canyon.

Twisting, winding all day ride
Great road passing through the Shiprock formation up close, up and over a very nice typically twisty Buffalo pass, and along the Canyon de Chelly with its great overlooks of the cliff dwellings. Paved all the way!
Just a short route to get to the Natural Bridge but it is beautiful and twisty. Definitely worth seeing!
Fun ride with straightaways, long curves, mountain twisties, beautiful vistas, and a biker/rider friendly ghost town. This route includes the nearby Tuzigoot National Park. Bring a camera and mount one one your bike. Jerome is a hoot! Check out the Haunted Hamburger Cafe. Prescott is a delightful small town, once the territorial capital of Arizona.
Long straights, fast bends through the Indian Reservation and across into Colorado
Easy, up and down sweepers and straights, quite good.
Nice mix of straights and speedy sweepers.
Great view, nice turns and nice places to stop.
Pleasant up and downs with fun hairpins
Stunning surroundings with some very nice corners and a few nice straights.
Really nice mixture of different types of corners, great views and some straight blasts, very enjoyable.
Enjoy the changes of scenery, corners and nice places to stop.
