Sarcasm Sheldon. Appalachian American sarcasm.I see that's from 2013. Perhaps they will be freshly paved when we get there!

Believe it or not, I have stopped to take pictures...usually just not while following Bob.

My Laam seat works just fine...but yeah, Bob generally doesn't stop to check out the sites very often.

Preview an unoffical route that would be FYB's cup o' tea...https://trips.furkot.com/ts/6oKZXk
Scratch the Dragon's Back before brunch with the home cookin' specialists at the Red Bud Diner (formerly Big Daddy's) in Adria then chase brunch with another 200 miles of twisties!

Conquer Big Walker, cross the Eastern Continental Divide, play on Potts Mtn, have a buffalo sandwich at the Swinging Bridge, experience God's Thumbprint and slay VAs dragon all in the same journey!

Don't do it, Joe. The west end of that sucks big....... how do they call that a park anyway.

spkbuk knock it off, your killing me. I'm was just out blowing snow off my driveway and thinking I should forget about EOM since I have so many out of state rides planned for this summer. My last EOM in 2014 at Maggieville was a blast and I can not wait to get down in that country again.

No relief for the tempted Abercrombie. Hoping to stoke the smolder into a flame!
Bring one of them big pigs and we will go exploring. I've got a couple of n-i-c-e Whytheville adventure/dual sport loops in the can...

Here's one for Mr. Abercrombie and anyone fleetingly thinking of big pigs in Whytheville. The video wiggles and wobbles but so to does a trip up Round Mountain. A preview of Burkes Garden begins at about the 10 minute mark.
Route NOT FJR recommended.
Shake 'em on Down...
