Roads in Oregon that I would/wouldn't recommend

[schoeney]

On my trip to the rally we criss crossed the Cascades a few times. Here are my recommendations, good and bad.

Hwy 138 from Diamond Lake to Roseburg...awesome ride along the Umpqua River not much traffic at all. Relaxing sweepers, no twisties, and all down hill...got 50 MPG (usually 40) !

Hwy 101 from Bandon to Crescent City...awesome scenery (ocean) but has a fair amount of traffic but it moves along ok. Weather was decent but I would not want to ride it real early or late in the day as fog may be an issue. Lots of places to stop for pics and services.

Hwy 38 from Reedsport to Eugene. Nice ride, good road surface, sweepers no twisties, lots of scenery, got to see elk and lots of the Umpqua River.

Hwy 126 from Eugene east to Hwy 22. Hwy 126 was my favorite ride on this trip. Hardly any traffic, great scenery and road surface. Sweepers.

Road 46 from Detroit to Estacada along the Clackamas River. A hidden gem that not many know about. Great scenery, a good combo of twisties and sweepers. No traffic. It is a relaxing ride as the speed limit is 45 in most places.

Hwy 58 from Eugene to Hwy 97....just sucks. Lots of traffic.

Hwy 22 from Sisters to Salem. Sucks. Lots of traffic and poor road surface.
