      One of my favorite rides is 191 in AZ. The old devil's highway. There are 2 areas of 191 that are beautiful: from Morenci north to Alpine and from Canyon DeChile to Moab, Utah.

    Great videos of these roads and tunnels in the Black Hills. It is absolutely perfect riding out there. Motorcycles are perfect because you can smell the ponderosa pines in the air, see the water and rock formations perfectly and truly experience the greatness of the hills because the bike is out in the open air. I know. Sounds too much like a cliche but watching cars travel around out there with closed windows and a/c running isn’t the best experience in my humble opinion. Going out there again sometime soon. Happy riding guys!

    That arched bridge at the beginning? I was there when those huge laminated wooden arches were being brought in. They were being hauled one at a time, inverted, when one tipped over. Truck was rounding a curve and the thing tipped over. Didn’t see it fall, but was there as the driver and a few others were running around stopping traffic. I think it was the late 60s or early 70s..

      Absolutely. We remember when they used to be at the corner of Cathedral Drive and Mt. Rushmore Road back in the day!

      What Todd said!
      Anything you could add to tags or descriptions that would elevate results for folks like me who search “Iron Mountain Road”?
      Came across your marvelous video buried among less spectacular search results.
      Truly well done!

    • @605rides3

      Hi Ray, yeah our channel is so small it tends to get buried deeper down in the results. We are definitely trying to make sure the tags are relevant. Thank you for the kind words!

    Been there, done that.
    It's a cool ride coming up from the South. That way as you go through the Tunnels you can see Rushmore in the background. Then I like to turn around and ride it in the other direction. Then I like to ride over to the Needles Hwy.
    Good riding can be found throughout the Black Hills...
