US 169 is generally a good road in Iowa. It's all 2 lane road with a good lane width. The initial road through Madison County and Dallas County is small rolling hills and nice scenery. It flattens out as you head north of Des Moines (Adel). Expect realistic traffic speeds to be in the low 60's but there are lots of small towns with slow downs to ~25mph.
