Author Message   Jpb Posted on Monday, August 25, 2008 - 12:35 pm:        Due to vehicle and family issues I can't make it to Georgia for Buelltoberfest I'm looking for info on the best roads / area within a 4 hour drive of DC. Help? Suggestions? Good campground info would be appreciated as well. Thanks!   Chellem Posted on Monday, August 25, 2008 - 12:40 pm:        DC is pretty close to Shenandoah I think, right? Must be some nice roads once 66 ends. I know we've done skyline drive a few times, but that's more scenic than twisty. There's lots of camping in the national park area too. Or you could come to scenic New Jersey! I mean, who WOULDN'T want to see the famous NJ Turnpike? Kidding aside, there are some nice roads in Western NJ, but it's probably just a tad outside your 4 hour timeframe. ->ChelleM   Oldog Posted on Monday, August 25, 2008 - 12:50 pm:        the area around goshen VA has some spectacular roads and scenery just came back from a business trip look for a route 606? and similar I have some notes on route numbers some where.   Jlnance Posted on Monday, August 25, 2008 - 02:09 pm:        I went to a BRAG event in LaVale, MD a few years ago. Fantastic riding and only about 2 hours out of DC. Its up near that really skinny part of MD.   S1wmike Posted on Monday, August 25, 2008 - 03:19 pm:        Just check out the WV Buell Rally 2 weeks ago. Close to D.C> and plenty of good roads   Toona Posted on Monday, August 25, 2008 - 06:52 pm:        I'm a little partial to my "playground" here in central PA, near Altoona. I'm hosting a ride the Saturday after Labor Day, Sept 6. You might want to check in with guys from the DC/MD/VA Storm Front, I think Rasmonis and maybe a few others are coming up. I've hosted the Res Ride the past 2 Memorial Day weekends with an average of 20-25 riders in attendance. As far as camping, Prince Galitzen State park has typical state park style spots prince gallitzin link, there is a local campground in Altoona (I'll have to get a name for you) and then there is Lake Raystown Resort http://www.raystownresort.com to the south-about 45 mintues away from me. If you need any other info, drop me a line, I'd be glad to help.   Sekalilgai Posted on Monday, August 25, 2008 - 08:33 pm:        Try this one out http://www.badweatherbikers.com/buell/messages/142 838/377579.html There's a chicken run going on this weekend down around Snowshoe....   Jpb Posted on Monday, August 25, 2008 - 08:38 pm:        Thanks for all the info guys...keep them coming...I'm looking into a few of them tonight and over the next couple of days. Thanks again!   José_quiñones Posted on Monday, August 25, 2008 - 10:17 pm:        Some great roads in our area: Commonwealth of Virginia: http://www.virginiadot.org/programs/prog-byways-si tes.asp Republik of Maryland: http://www.sha.state.md.us/exploremd/oed/scenicbyw ays/scenicbyways.asp For all states, routes suggested by bikers: http://www.motorcycleroads.us Enjoy!   Blublak Posted on Tuesday, August 26, 2008 - 01:24 pm:        JP - PM Sent..
