Oklahoma Motorcycle Roads and TripsMotorcycle rides in Oklahoma's (OK) will feature scenery dominated by flat to rolling hills of various forms of prairie grasslands as three quarters of the state is blanketed by prairie grasses (one quarter of the state is considered forested). Riders will see elevations that vary from the state's low point in its southeast corner (at only 800 feet above sea level) and rise as you move west into the panhandle where the highest peak resides - Black Mesa at 5,000 feet above sea level. The state has four primary mountain ranges: the Ouachita Mountains, the Arbuckle Mountains, the Wichita Mountains, and the Ozark Mountains. And, the state is home to the most number of manmade lakes in the US at 200. Okmulgee Lake Tour (Jun 10)
… lake is very pretty there is a very nice over-flow dam that is amazing. most the road has trees next too or limbs hanging out so lots of shade to cool off in ... very good pavement there is some dirt and gravel patches from trucks, not many potholes. And there are loads of good curves and twisties and some 90 degree turns
The Best of 66 (Oct 09)
… a small portion of Route 66 and it's beautiful. Some curves and lots to look at, but you will probably have to backtrack for some photo ops, markings leave a lot to be desired and the speed limit is so high
Edmond-Stillwater Circuit (Jul 09)
… full of back roads and open country. There are nice shaded runs with good shade and wide open runs through massive fields. You also get to see some cool old towns
Kenwood Road (Feb 09)
… ride travels through some valleys of thick trees where you'll also see cliffs and clear streams- beautiful ...turn around and ride Kenwood Road again- it looks different going the other way
The Rune Stone Ride (May 08)
… road is perfect! It's nicely paved and has a lot of curves as well as some straight-aways. There is no traffic - at times I didn't pass a car or truck for 30 minutes ... you have to ride out to the Rune Stone National Park in Heavener to see the proof the Norse men discovered America

The Oklahoma Gloss Mountain Stretch (Feb 05)
… a ride through the Gloss Mountains - appear as if they are covered with a layer of glass … as you top the first big hill be ready for the park/picnic area on your right … be sure and climb to of the makeshift stairway as the view from up there is simply GREAT!
Telimena National Scenic Byway (Feb 04)
