[QUOTE="Geezer, post: 1121838, member: 436"] The Atlantic coast is very nice to see, but traffic is usually heavy anywhere near the ocean and prices for food and lodging are generally higher than they are inland. If you do want to see the ocean. If you don't need to see the ocean, then head west from Maine across New Hampshire and Vermont to the Adirondacks in northern NY. There is a lot of good riding in the 'dacks. If you are interested in baseball there us the Hall of Fame in Cooperstown, just south of the 'dacks. From there you can head south and follow two lane roads that parallel the I81 corridor. Traffic is much better that way than if you try to go south through New Jersey. As stated by Full House, don't skip the Blueridge Parkway. You can ride it end to end in one day if traffic is light and you don't stop often, but you'll want to pull over and take some pictures a few times, so plan on sending more than a day or just ride part of the parkway. It's all god, but the south end is the best part. Now that you've gne far enough south, you might want to ride The Dragon, which is on the border of Tennessee and North Carolina, near Robbinsville, NC. It's worth riding at least once in your life. There is good riding across South Carolina and Georgia, but I don't have much experience riding there so I can't recommend anything in particular. [/QUOTE]
