I've driven on it many times (lived in Glace Bay as a kid and have relatives in GB and Sydney Mines), but never ridden it.

I've ridden all of it, but I doubt I will again unless whoever I'm with just insists. Sorry, California. You've got the roads, just way too many people on the coast.

My reading comprehension sucks.
Well I did pick the PCH....BUT the original post said this...

Perfect weather, no traffic, and you can ride what ever you want. Which road(s) would it be and why?

A place I would love to go again and I have never ridden there but when I was driving through I thought "what a great place to ride" The Area around Banff and Lake Louise in the Canadian Rockies

Mulholland Highway, not Mulholland Drive. Back in the fifties and sixties when Mulholland Drive was not inundated with houses, the road would have made a heck of a twisty, but nowadays, you'll get your ass ran over by drunken Hollywood stars and rich hoity toities.

And yes, GMR/GRR/Mount Baldy/Azusa Canyon combo is a great runm, as is Rim of the World in the summer when the snow melted.

Pacific Coast Highway is more of a cruise than a sport ride anyway. It's just cool because it hugs the ocean at most places and the weather is almost always nice.
