there is tons of stuff up north (paved and dirt)

you can drive out towards payson which is a nice road


another great area is near prescott (just west of there) tons of windy roads.

as for dirt roads, you can pretty much go anywhere.

if you want to drive around at all i would really suggest getting this



it shows every road including dirt roads. and its at a small enough scale that you can tell how windy it is. its a must have. it runs around $20 at most bookstores. i have found a lot of cool roads using that thing

you should be ok on dirt roads, just take it easy though. those stock tires aren't going to do all that great on the dirt.
