To be honest, the caves trip wasn't that great of a ride... I don't think I'd be inclined to do that again... Most of the roads, namely the G109, had so much traffic that either you play the game of leap-frog passing to make it interesting or you cherish your life and die of boredom in the drawl of typical China-driver-scenic-pace-plus-random-dangerous-annoyance-and-stupidity. Obviously, we did the leap-frog passing method, but it still sucked.
The ride to the Wall was more interesting in that we got to experience some nice twisties, some dusty and less traveled mountain roads, some dirt roads and muddy roads all within about 50 kilometers. That's what motorcycles are all about. but, we had to slab out on the G6 to get there in relatively heavy traffic. I think it's worth it and I would do it again... and probably would like to find a more interesting way back home than the expressway (hint hint)

Let's ride, dude... I'm sure you've forgotten more rides around Beijing than I know. My method is pretty simple: I look for squiggly lines on a map and head there... but it's not always fool-proof. I'm often delighted, and nearly as often not quite impressed. It would be nice to have an old hand in the mix as I'm still quite a newbie here, relatively speaking :)
