Great Motorcycle Roads to Ride in Colorado

a great motorcycle road in ColoradoThis page is offered as a convenience if you’re looking for a particular road. You can go to the home page and click on the map to bring up any section of the state, and then click on any of the highlighted roads to bring up more information. Or, you can select the road from the list below. Route maps and photos are included with each suggested route.

This website has primarily focused on paved roads, but by request I am going to be adding some unpaved roads, too. You’ll find what I have so far on the Dirt Roads and Side Trips page.

Also, and this is new, Gord Ripley has done us all the courtesy of plotting all these roads below on GPS, and here is the GPS file for you to download.
