You’d think with these kinds of TIRES
numbers, you’d find a lot of sportbikes converging on this
twisty, question-mark-shaped route through California’s least
visited national park. But while cruisers love this smoothly
paved ride through the snowy, volcanic peaks, rugged, red-rock
slopes, alpine forests and floral meadows, something keeps their
knee puck-dragging brothers away. It’s sure not the lack of
Twistiness or Scenery. The Forest Service Pavement is good to
great and Engineering is more than adequate. You might think it
had something to do with the 35-mph (55-kmh) zone that covers
the twistier southern half. Or the tourist traffic that can
descend like a blanket of ash on summer weekends. But the real
reason? The same guys who will spend two grand on a set of
Akrapovic racing pipes and four hundred bucks on the latest
radar detector can’t bring themselves to part with a measly $5
toll, no matter how great a road is.

'Rode this 6 years ago (sportbike! 5 bucks? Bah! And THAT was when the CDN loonie was worth 55 US cents!). Worth doing for sure. Being a Park, traffic can be an issue, but console yourself with the scenary if need be.' --Angus Noble
