My thinking at the moment (subject to change..)
Do to the Last Chance Rally in NJ (
www.lastchancerally.com), Sept 23rd-25th.
Sunday Sept 25th - Leave Last Chance and head for Stephen's City VA (be about a nice 5 hour ride via backroads..)
Sunday night - overnight in Stephen's City, then head up into the hills of WV (some nice routes from VA to WV I know of..) There is a great Greek/Italian resturant in Stephen's City that I usually go to. I usually stay at the Comfort Inn (they let us park under the canopy.. and they have a pool to sit around and BS..)
Monday - Sept 26th, head up into the moutains. Meeting place for anyone joining us on Monday AM would be Seneca Rocks on Rt 28. See if we can stay at Boyland Station (small old motel with resturant out front) in Green Bank WV. Ride around that area, visit Green Bank (always an interesting free tour..) No WIFI or cell phone in the valley (it's a designated national radio-free zone..)
Tuesday - Sept 27th, head on to Snowshoe (bottom of the mountain.) It ain't great, but the price isn't awful. There is edible food and the amazing Berryl across the road. No WIFI unless you go across the road.
Wednesday - Sept 27th, head the long way around to either Charleston WV (capital city) or directly to Caanan Valley state park (motel rooms, reasonable prices, some WIFI at the lodge, good resturant, pools, indoor-outdoor, hot tub, lot of deer.) If we go to Caanan Valley - figure on 2 nights, Weds and Thursday. If we go to Charleston, then we head to Caanan Valley on Thursday night.
Friday - Sept 28th, head for home. Doing it highway, it's about an 7-8 hour ride for me from Caanan Valley. A bit
of a grind, but doable. If anyone wants to stretch it out a day - could do backroads back to Stephen's City, stay overnight and I head for home on Saturday AM. Still a long day - but it's mostly all backroads.
Thoughts? Suggestions?
