My favorite is a route/circuit rather than a specific road but it does have a series of brilliant of roads that just blow your mind and I never tire of it, we do it often on a Thursday night in the lighter nights and its about 120 miles.
We meet around the Erskine Bridge and cross the Firth of Clyde heading up the side of Loch Lomond take a left onto the A817 military road heading to Faslane/Garelochhead then onto the A814 which is a brilliant section of road, very narrow, twisty with a lot of hump crests where literally you can lift off the road with a bit of speed. The road follows the waters edge of Loch Long and takes you into Arrochar, from here you head up the A83 along the side of the Cobbler and up and over 'the rest and be thankful', take a left at Loch Fyne and head down the A815 again following the Loch, you then head inland along the side of Loch Eck and down into Dunoon where we catch the last ferry over to Gourock and head back up to Glasgow. I prefer doing it this direction as the ferry is always a great way to end the night as you never get fed up with the scenic crossing no matter the weather. I could not guess how many times I've done this route and the differing weather but its always brilliant. We can add other roads to this route both fast and single track for a day run and end up at 250-300 miles.
