Washington's State BEST Fall time Roads

[SeattleTy]

Washington has some of the best motorcycles roads in America,

and the changing of colors during the fall season can make for a joyful day of riding.

What are some of your favorite fall time roads to ride,

to captivate the amazing and beautiful colors of autumn?

What are some of your favorite fall time roads to ride,to captivate the amazing and beautiful colors of autumn?

Highway 21 from Keller to Republic and bit further to the border...or vice versa. Just starting to change last weekend....going to get much better in the next few weeks.

 

[SeattleTy]

I have a strong feeling highway 21 would be much nicer on a 2014

Hope your 2014 is treating you well Ignacio !

I have a strong feeling highway 21 would be much nicer on a 2014

I've cruised it 5 times on an '05 and 2 times on a '14. All 7 times were pretty danged good.....and pretty sure it's good on all years of FJRs.

Hit it one time perfect with my friend Jeff, nice and dry and piles of Maple Leaves. Every time we stopped Jeff pulled a half dozen or so leaves out of various places.

It was fun watching him in the review, it reminded me of someone in a wind tunnel as my bike picked the leaves up and put them in a double swirl!

Looks like a terrific route Panman! Thank you for your excellent selection Panman

Take Highway 20 from Tonsaket east over Sherman Pass to Ione and you’ll be treated to panoramic views of the Kettle Range mountainsides covered with western larch (also known as tamarack) in the Colville National Forest. Add the Lake Sullivan loop from Ione to Metaline Falls for even more fall color. I rode through there Monday. Pretty special!

Keep Going!

That is nice any time of year, I like taking the Le Clerc Rd down to down to Newport after going around Lk Sullivan heading up stream following the Pend Oreille River.

That is one outstanding looking fall picture Mount Rainier!

I would have to say this is one of Washington's best Autumn road for motorcycles by look of this picture.

Share your best roads for Autumn travel and help others find fantastic roads to enjoy during Washington's Autumn season.
