Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

We are going there this coming week to camp, ride, hike, etc. This will be the first time I'll be there so I have no idea about routes for road riding. Does anyone here have any routes for this? I don't care if it's 25 or 50 miles route. Would be extremely grateful if you do. Everyone has said it's gorgeous up there so I'm pretty excited.

If that's where I think it is, Bike Virginia just went through there last week. You might want to check out some of their routes on bikevirginia.org.

I did the long, steep ride up Whitetop Mountain road, and then back into Damascus on 58. Very nice (hilly) riding.
