[QUOTE="Art FJR, post: 617823, member: 13897"] All, I am in the Northern VA also (Manassas). I would bypass Skyline drive and the BRP heading to EOM. If I remember correctly, Skyline drive is 35 mph and BRP is 45 mpg. Coming back from Bedford VA on 43 I saw the BPR and did it and continued on SLD to Front Royal (and then Rt 55) and then back home. It took the better part of a day and without question was really nice. BUT you guys are in easy striking distance of SLD and BRP. I suggest getting down the road and then doing BRP starting at Roanoke or beyond. You can always do the SLD/BRP up this way. Just my 2 cents. On the positive side, it will definately be cooler up there. You can't really ride hard up there cause I hear the tickets are impressive. I think I was running +5 and there was little traffic and will do it again for sure. I am riding down on Thursday and hope to make it in a day (easy). Headed back on Monday morning. I am riding with a buddy and I think the plan is to slab it most of the way to get there. If anyone wants to tag along, let me know. And I think we need to form an informal group of FJR riders in this area so there is a possibility of a group of 2 or 3 or 4 heading to WV for a day of riding. I ran 211 from Warrenton to New Market thinking this would satisfy me, but it didn't. Art [/QUOTE]
