Hey guys, I'll be social distancing by running the entire Blue Ridge Parkway all the way to the Dragon in early October (475 mi. of mountain pavement with views). Leaving DC area on the 7th, return on the 11th. Any and all are welcome to join our little group for some or all of the trip.

Sounds like a fun trip, if I can make it up there, I will PM you. The AL/TN might have something going too.

I'll be at the Gap, hangin' at the moto-resort with the bikers and a couple friends on the 9th. Come on up! Bring beers and meat for the grill....

Enjoy Jim, I will make it back there in the future to run BRP and the dragon again.

Just tossin' it out there...

The plan is to hit the Blue Ridge Parkway at the northern end and run down to Blowing Rocks. Next it's on to Deal's Gap (or Gatlinburg for the squeemish). Next, ... Spend a couple days chillin' and hanging and driving on Cherahala Pkwy or the Foothills Pkwy or the 'Moonshiner' or the 'Rattler' or maybe a trip to 'Wheels of Time'. Then it's head back on the country roads. (or just hit rt 40/81 if the weather sucks)... This is a 1200 mi road-trip. You gotta love driving your viper for this one!!
