I've ridden this road 3 times on my RoadKing. Once in the dark (not recommended) and once loaded down with about 300 pounds of cargo, including camping gear, 8 rifles and shotguns and a couple thousand rounds.
Had to take it a lot easier on that one cause I had blown an air line for the rear shocks and was sitting pretty low.

I think I just saw a sign with "Tennessee" on it at right about 1:00....is that where this ride is?

Beautiful.......

Yes - and it's a tourist trap. If you want the same effect - Rt. 211 over Skyline Drive is awesome.

Yep, I imagine so, I've done that in a car and it's a beautiful ride......we didn't have a bike when we lived in VA., though. We did go up Mt. Washington in NH, on a bike, not really pretty, but scary....but the strange thing, it seemed more scary when we did it in a car than when we did it on a bike...

Yep, big tourers CAN do twisties!

Am I reading too much into the optics here? Your Harley is pictured at the foot of a cross?

The country church is behind the dealership I sold them at. It is a reminder to me is why I took the pic there.

Used to take 211 all the time, witnessed 2 motorcycle accidents on the east side of the mountain going up. One almost went under my truck and would have if I hadn't seen it coming and hit the brakes. The cop that responded was admonishing the riders in his Virginia drawl, "no one comes up here from Arlington on a bike to drive slow over the mountain."
That time only the bike and the riders ego were damaged, the first time they had to take two people away in an ambulance, they hit a rock face on a corner.
Skyline Drive is a great ride during the weekday, steer clear during the summer weekends.

Just came back from Smokey Mountains in Tennessee, where I spent Christmas, and saw some awesome areas to ride.......but maybe not in winter, especially if it's icy....
