Scenic Maryland Motorcycle Rides

Maryland offers a mix of mountain roads, farmland, and coastal scenery, giving riders a variety of experiences across the state. If you are planning a trip, here are some highlights to consider:

1. State Route 51 (Cumberland Area) – this sprawling road follows an active rail yard and provides a unique riding experience. As it continues, the 4-lane road becomes 2 lanes throughout the mountains of Maryland, offering scenic views of the Potomac River.
2. State Route 17 (Northern Maryland) – this twisting road travels through farm country and passes through small towns such as Burkittsville, known as the home of the Blair Witch.
3. State Route 16 (Eastern Shore & Chesapeake Bay) – this relaxing country road passes through beautiful farmland and leads to Taylors Island, located along the Chesapeake Bay with great views of the water.

These highlights are intended to inspire your next ride. Road, traffic and weather conditions can change quickly. Riders should plan their own routes and use appropriate caution.
