^^^ nice perspectives trekmogul!!!!
It’s just north of Bishop Ca. and west off hwy 395. It’s not that long a road but runs parallel and close to the Sierra’s with some great views of the mountains. It’s a good hour bike ride i’ve used to take a break from driving 395……you also need to bring some apples for the horse.
....and thanks Dan!!

That part of California is really a photographer's paradise. Great riding too, it's just so remote that few people are willing to drive that far. I'm really tempted to just relocate to an area like that, so I have no excuse for not riding in that kind of scenery more often.
I can think of a dozen great rides within an hour's drive of where I live now, but the logistics of waiting for a day off, with good weather, packing everything up, getting up early, eating, getting gas in the car, etc. has been too much for me to deal with more than a couple times a year. It would be much easier to have this kind of place within riding distance, even if it means longer commute times to work. Riding > Work.

a section of California’s Route 66 that was replaced with interstate 40 which was built to the north.

Empty roads? Some of those need to be put in a firewood thread.

High Falls, NY.
A new neighbor bought a property with no house or driveway. He just had the driveway put in and gave it a punny name.
