    I did an awesome run out to Utah/Colorado and back in 8 days, but those were some long days. A couple extra days would have been nice.
    Better to regret something you have done than something you haven't.

    Three days down, two back and fun fun fun! Don't focus on the Dragon, have a look at all the incredible roads around it like the Cherhola.

    Or,

    East Coast to Cabot trail via the US.

    Google maps set to terrain and look for mountains, rivers and ocean to ride along and through.

    I'm a big fan of New Hampshire. Amazing riding in the White Mountains. Great scenary, very little traffic, helmets optional (seatbelts in cars optional too), and you can get there via the Adriondac region of New York and upstate Vermont and continue on to the coast of Maine and still make it home in time easily.

    I agree... Nice roads in the mountains and close to home. Did it last year (4 day trip) and doing it again this year.
