Blue Ridge Parkway
 
just got in from a little night riding on the Parkway, awesome road at night, and its only 10 mins from here, did not meet one single car! though there were several deer in a few spots

I was just on that road Sunday. It really varies from one area to another, but the good spots are hard to beat!

I did a 5 day motorcycle trip last spring and caught BRP and Cherohala (sp?) Skyway right at dusk on back-to-back days. I don't know if another street ride will ever top that.

Cherahola is my favorite I have ever ridden...

All of those roads are "THE RIDE" that keeps me wanting more.

Just an FYI the closed "Craggy Garden" section is due to open one lane on May15. Hope to have it completly opened some time in June. Anybody that wants maps or info just let me know.

It's a great road but driving it everyday as a job I tend to avoid it on my days off.

Yeah, I don't have enough vacation time to take off the full week and take all the vacation days I want this year.

I have a wife, she likes to go places too.

There was a group ride this past Sunday up thru Shady Valley that I wasn't able to join in on. :panic: I just got back from a week in Puerto Rico and had too much going on to do an allday ride. Maybe next time. :rockout: I did get to ride for a couple of hours at least. :rockwoot:

Same here, by far. That day we hit it at dusk, we made it through all 40+ miles with only seeing one car. So perfect it felt surreal!
