I posted this in the c14 section a little while back but I am leaving next month from south georgia to the blue ridge parkway. We are going to catch the start of the Shenandoah Valley in Front Royal and ride the parkway way all the way to the end in Cherokee. According to time we may catch the dragon(rode it before). Any suggestions for the parkway? We are going to start it on a Tuesday morning and try to hit cherokee friday.
Little Switzerland is a nice play to stop, there is a small ice cream shop there, we always stop and take a break there. Watch the double lines,
and slow traffic, and the 45 mph speed limit.

Mabry Mill is a nice photo op:
along with countless over looks.
I have ridden that length in two days, so you should have time to finish it in time to run the dragon and the Cherohala.
