If you like tight twisties, this is the road for you. Omg! Virtually every turn, and there are lots of them, is banked perfectly. The pavement, as of May 2016, is in perfect condition. And the traffic, when I rode it - a Saturday afternoon in mid-May, was virtually nonexistent. I rode down maybe 15 miles of its roughly 20 miles of really good (curvy) stuff, turned around and went back up 5 miles, then down again. In all that time I encountered exactly one car.

Having ridden just about anything worth riding in the eastern US, as well as most good twisties in Northern California, I find this to be the best tight twisties road ever. And dang, what a find!!!

Make the effort. It will be worth it.

PS - the main entrance into Sequoia is a hoot too! Just get to it early if it's summer

Unbelievably fantastic road!!! Took this road in May 2015. I traveled from north to south. The northern part of this road is tight twisty after twisty after twisty! A sport bike riders dream! Honestly, I had to pull up a few times just to catch my breath. The longest straight in this section is about 100 feet. Great pavement. Banked corners. Didn't see a single car on a Saturday! Did see some cows on the hwy though lol. By the time you get to the straighter sections, you're thankful for the break! This road will wear you out in a good way. Highly, highly recommend for sport/sport tour riders. Guys on Harley's won't have any pegs left when they're done! Couldn't tell you what the scenery is like because I was to busy trail braking into the corner after corner after corner after corner, for miles and miles, with no other soul on the road.

Be sure to fuel up because there is NO GAS anywhere on this road.

ridden this road twice it's called the 245. Has lots of twisties, but lots of blind sharp turns. Rode in winter, and recently at beginning of May. Nice views, be carful of debris in road, those pine cones, and small rocks will get u.

LOTS of twisties! This road demands your attention while you ride it, but is such a pleasure to ride. Most curves are well banked, but you also need to be careful of some that fall away from you - thankfully only a couple of those exist. A stop at the Mountain House tavern is a must and you get the chance to soak in the scenery on clear days out on their deck. When you reach highway 180, a left turn and about 15 miles more will bring you to a place to fill up -- then turn around and run the route in reverse - you will be surprised how each direction makes for a unique ride! Enjoy, and go later in the season so you avoid sand and ice in some of the heavily shaded areas in early riding season.
