Good winding roads?

Hwy 1 through marin is nice: 55 speedlimit, never any cops, right on the ocean, and lots of twisties. Don't go on a nice day though, unless you wanna follow the minivans to the beach . For some reason "Slower traffic use pullouts" isn't understandible to most people...
Paradise drive (off 101) in Marin is a nice little jount, but not worth going to unless u live nearby. Its kinda bumpy, and only a 25, and there are lots of rich people driving fast cars SLOW. The upside is that it crosses a small chunkof unincorporated land that is too small for the sheriff to bother with it, but outside the jurisdiction of the local police dept.
Nicassio Valley road, off sir francis drake, is a great high speed country road. It where i first topped out 4th gear.
Skyline blvd., south of san francisco, winds down the ridge of the santa cruz mountains. Great road, very little traffic, never seen a cop.

From another post of mine.
This is the loop I use to take on my bike. It takes a long time to do the whole thing. Most of a whole day. I call it my East Bay loop. You will run into just about every type of road out there from 100mph+ sweepers to 15mph switchbacks.
Starting in Dublin/Pleasanton Area.
Camino Tasssajara --> Highland Rd --> Vasco Rd --> Camino Diablo --> Marsh Creek Rd --> Kirker Pass Rd --> Highway 4 --> Alhambra Ave --> Alhambra Valley Rd --> Bear Creek Rd --> Wildcat Rd --> Shasta Rd --> Grizzly Peak Rd --> Skyline Rd --> Redwood Rd --> Palomares Rd --> Felter Rd --> Mt. Hamilton Rd --> San Antonio Valley Rd --> Mines Rd --> Done.
If anyone thinks they are up to it, lets do it. This is only for the hardcore.
