    I90 in PNW. I80 between Chicago and eastern PA, maybe even NJ. Second one most likely because it means I’m on the way home, lol. I94 Wi-Mn is also some good running.

    17 is a close second, deff not the 1st thing that comes to mind when you think of NY, especially on the eastern end close to 87. If I'm running out to CT from Bing area I'll always opt for that compared to 84. Same with 88 running up into new england, beautiful ride too. 390 too. If im going up to rochester area 81 is about 15 miles shorter but I run 17/390 every time

    I used to really enjoy running the various two laners throughout Texas. Speed limits are high and there is some pretty country, especially from the Piney Woods down through the Hill Country and beyond. Even 90 out of Del Rio west is very relaxing.

    Provo, UT. US 6 and 191 to Cortez, CO.

    US 14 along the Columbia in southern Washington.
    US 50 from Ohio to I79 in WV.
    Most mountain interstates, if I'm light.

    Most roads with light traffic. I enjoy the vast array of scenic byways and highways.
