The top one for me, in FLA is US-1 through The Keys. Not technical, but the scenery and the experience is all there! Besides, we go to The Keys to relax.

One of my favorites has always been hwy 12 between Kooskia ID an Lolo MT.  No breathtaking views, but just 133 miles of a great twisting road with only a very small town or two in between

One of our favorites also! We had a pair of Bald Eagles keeping us company in Salmon River Canyon on one of our pit stops along the River, and spent the night in Salmon, on our way to Flathead Lake and Glacier.

After the US 1 route to the Keys in Florida (best), Hwy. 98 running west of Medart to Mexico Beach, FL.  A very scenic route, no twisites, Gulf of Mexico on 1 side, forest mostly on the other.  Take the side trip from Eastpoint over the bridge to St. George Island for a cold beverage and/or stop for a refreshing libation at the Gibson Inn on their rocking chair porch in Appalachicola (great raw oysters!).  

If you have time, take the Hwy. 30-A side trip to Indian Pass & eat oysters at the raw bar there.

Arkansas......  From Mountain View go north on hwy 5 to Sylamore and turn on hwy 9 to Melbourne then go right on hwy 69 for 6 miles then turn right on hwy 58 and ride to hwy 14 then turn right and take 14 back to Mountain View.

The best loop in Arkansas. IMO.  Very scenic and technical.

...from Mexico to Canada, 395 is my favorite all the way. Next would be the Palomar Mountain road down to Lake Henshaw.

Just one?? Just one??

I guess for beauty and curves I would have to choose Hwy 1 from Morro Bay, Calif up to the end of it in Northern Calif - bad thing is part of the ride you go through San Francisco.

(and a very close 2nd would be -- not as pretty scenery but knarly corners Hwy 49 from Bear Valley, California to Coulterville, California  -- also know as the Little Dragon)
