Trying to put together a collection of twisty tours from around the country. Please post your favorite showing start and finish points, things to see along the way, good restaurants, places to stay, and photos if you have. Comments, etc.

Please provide the street addresses if you have them. Makes it easier in mapping software.

My all time favorite, is a 2 lane twister that goes from Spokane, WA to Rockford, WA. I will have to look up the exact road names, but basically, you travel out the south hill of spokane, and turn right on Valley Chapel road. It is about 3-4 miles past 57th street going south. Just follow the road, and stay on it, and it will eventually spit you out by Rockford, WA on Hwy 27. It is ultra windy, paved well, you never see any traffic, and is a total riot to charge down in a sportbike or Porsche. I used to ride it everyday in the summer on the way home from work/college for years. Alot of memories on that road. It is stunningly beautiful, with alot of trees, creeks/bridges, and whatnot. Just be careful in the spring- one time my dad and I were racing home, and we were taking a posted corner of 35 at about 80, and there happend to be some sand left over from winter on the apex. Dad's bike slid sideways, and hi-sided, body slaming him into the pavement. He busted his collar bone, and smashed up his new custom paint job. Luckily I was a couple bike length's behind him, and was able to make it, but just wanted to give fair warning to those that ride/drive "spirited" from time to time in the spring here. Let me know if you want a guided tour!
