I was wondering if anyone new of any good roads around Tucson and toward Bensin, Sierra Vista, Bisbee, Douglas areas. I am in Sierra Vista and have already ridden Mount Lemmon in Tucson and Charleston Road from Sierra Vista to Tombstone several times. I also alm alsready spun up on the major Arizona roads, but I am looking for more the unknown stuff that is really local. I have major all-day and weekend rides planned for Hwy 191, up to Prescott, Hwy 89, etc. But inbetween those rides I would like to do more local riding and was hoping to find some better roads not so far from home. I am starting to get bored with my roads right near the house.

If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.

Some random suggestions:
You could try the Gates Pass/Saguaro Natl. Monument area, (also Saguaro East). Madera Canyon. Kitt's Peak. Sasabe Rd. to Arivaca. Maybe Rte. 82 & 83. (When you're in town go up "A" Mountain to catch a good view of the city).

Mt. Lemmon is still the best riding though, imo. Let me know what you explore.
