Northern California is one of the best places in the world to motorcycle and the people who live here know it! There are many motorcycling forums in the area for many different niches of motorcycling, but if you're looking for a comprehensive description of the best roads for leisurely touring you have to go to
Pashnit.com.
Pashnit founder Tim Mayhew has devoted the last 15 years to photographing and writing about California roads. His tireless efforts on the
California Motorcycle Roads website have spread across the globe becoming the definitive guidebook about motorcycle travel in California. Tim's work on the Pashnit site has gained an audience of as many as 30,000 people per day and has often been called one of the best motorcycling sites on the web.
Tim has also assembled a loose crew of guides, and they lead a few tours a year. Some are for-pay tours, but sometimes the people who belong to the forum just get together and create their own little tour.
You can browse the forum as a guest, or sign up for a reasonable fee to download and print out detailed maps with descriptions and photographs.
