This is just a 17 mile excursion, and it really isn't that much of a pavement alternative because the rural pavement it departs from on the north side (County 77/Tarryall Road) is two wheeled OUTSTANDING, but nevertheless, Turner Gulch or County 23 is equally so, but with an easy dirt surface. What is special about Turner Gulch is the coffee table picture book views of South Park's lumpy, rocky, treed eastern sides. And it's utterly lonely too.

Now, the direction to ride this is from south to north so the majority of distracting views are over your wind screen versus in your mirrors, but here's a 3:15 vid going from north to south
