Well, it'd be more than a scenic route - I'd have to circumnavigate the planet if I were to keep riding in this direction.
My rides home are mostly due east, directly into the rising sun :)

Also, this road surface is much worse than my favorite route.....and there are no edge lines, "fog lines", which I sorely need many mornings!

you don't want to become unseated out here in the boonies...!

We're lucky here - and I don't know if you have anything similar Stateside - in having a motorcycling app called RealRider which you can activate at the start of a ride and if the worst happens and you're downed, it automatically calls the emergency services with your exact location.
When "out in the boonies" here, I always make sure it's turned on!

Here's a couple from my ride earlier:
Note - it's still warm enough for the cattle (friesians?) to be out pasture grazing which is nice to see.
