The century route has some nice lake views but much of it is on state highways that, while safe with good shoulders and not much traffic, are not as rural or interesting as the county roads between the lakes. IMO of course...

^^^ more or less this, with some alternative roads through state forest land. It could be easily extended to century length with good views of both Cayuga and Seneca lakes and zero traffic.
c'mon down in the fall and ride with us!
