Hello there! I live out here in Tazewell Co. area about two hours from Roanoke and I travel about three times/week on I-81. I plan on doing the Wilderness Road Ride this year in Radford. I would enjoy loading my bike up and riding other places on my travel days for the fun of it. I went to Va. Tech and it appears there is no end to the cyclists in that area and Roanoke.

It's a small world. If you ever need anything this way, let me know. We have some pretty nice hilly rides around here, such as the Big Walker Century Ride (w/options) in July. That's in Wytheville. Anyhoo, hope you are gettin in some fantastic ridin' with this wonderful weather.

I grew up in Roanoke. We visited back there a couple of weeks ago. I wasn't in town long enought to try and bike - our schedule was way too busy.

I was in town over Easter weekend. There is a club called Blue Ridge Cyclists that you could meet up with on some rides. I know someone who rides with that group and she loves it. Google them but she said there is a VA and NC club so make sure you get the right one.

I met Marc and Steve with the Blue Ridge Bicycle Club in Roanoke last year at the MS 150 ride. They were cool to ride with - check them out. They also have a team for the 150 this year too.

amandaesq04 - have you done the Bike VA ride that is in Staunton each October? I have done it a couple of times when I lived closer to VA. I always loved riding around Staunton & Harrisonburg. I did th Bike VA ride the year it was in Winchester - again very beautiful. The down side to that ride was the food poisoning from one of the rest stops. Hundreds of riders went home early.
