Scenery

Deep country roads filled with scenic views. It doesn't get much better than this. I don't want to say to much and spoil the ride.

Drive Enjoyment

The road quality ranges from smooth to rough, soft curves and sharp twisties. Keep an eye open for loose gravel.

Tourism Opportunities

Food and Gas at the beginning in New Glarus, and at the end in Argyle, but not much between.

Enjoyed the Scenery, but the road quality is so poor I feel this is a dangerous route. The large amount of gravel at every intersection it can't be avoided. Lots of roads in this area are great I would stick to the main roads.

Good ride. My suggestion is to keep a lookout for "Rustic Highway" signs. There are a few in the area, and almost all of them are a hoot to ride.
