EAST Bay Area Roads
 

I've looking everywhere to find a good route(twisty roads, low speed) to drive around where i live but i cant find any, everything is near san jose and stuff, sj is 45 minutes away from me.

You want the answer as to why there are cops patrolling mtn roads?

THREADS LIKE THESE!

Look at a map, there are a ton of cool roads above Oakland. At least you dont live in Iowa.

I have a wall in my room thats only maps of Cali. I just look and find where I want to go that day. Some days a good some are kind of boring. If you want to help keep the cops off our road don't talk about them in a open forum.

pashnit was a site I used for years, try that place.

x2....but buy a map or something. taht works as well...or just driving around aimlessly until you stumble on something :SHOCKED:

im glad Pashnit charges a $20 membership now...it was giving away all the secret roads to 16 year olds.

yeah i've been google mapping all day but seriously, no where near my area...i gotta drive atleast 30 minutes to go somewhere.

maybe i should move o_O

i found it funny...cause you start out slow, get confident, then start to book...very bad :(

i meant that to be funny :cool:

NASA. it's cheap, you don't get arrested and it's relatively safe.

I know many entertaining routes, but I won't post them on public forum, PM me.

Hills above Berkeley thru Orinda, but always a lot of bikers

Marsh Creek road branching off into Morgan Territory Road; I got lost on that one once leaving Concord...ended up at Vasco Rd. Close to that is Byron Highway going thru the levees.

If you dont mind stretching it out....Tesla Road in Livermore eastbound ending @ Highway 580 cia Coral Hollow, also Mines Road and Patterson Pass.
