The area around Yosemite is full of wonderful backroads. Cottonwood road to Cherry Lake used to be one of my favorites until it got burned out by a devasting wildfire. 30 miles in and 30 miles out, no services or towns. I rode it four times in two weeks in 2012, burned in 2014.
Hwy 120 goes up an incredible grade to Groveland, about 40 miles from the Park gate. Two roads, the old grade and the new one are on opposite sides of major ravine with a good burger joint at the top and the the Mocassin fish Hatchery at the bottom. You can run laps if you so desire. I like the new grade for the smooth pavement and more predictable turns
Picture of my Ducati ss, rode the Vision here many times
