North Hollywood to Santa Maria, CA.

This is an absolutely beautiful ride. A little Highway, some nice long sweeping turns, some tight mountain turns with a little bit of snow possible, and then some beautiful long straightaways to push the speed limits of your bike, and that's before you hit the outstanding stretch of 166 west to Santa Maria. Enjoy the ride, stay the night, then take it back the other way, or explore a number of other options.
