Roanoke, WV- how's the riding?

[Becky]

I'm going to be in Roanoke, West Virginia for a few days this spring. Is it worth bringing a bike? Road or mountain?

Thanks in advance!

Bring your triple. I've ridden MTB there years (decades) ago, but not road. I will be there in a few weeks, and I'm hoping that the weather will cooperate and I'll bring my bike for commuting between my hotel and the conference I will be attending.

I think there might be a Roanoke cycling club of some sort, but I don't know the specifics.

Heh....no triple in my stable. A compact will have to do.... Maybe it's time to buy that triple crankset, just in case.

I'll look around for an area club for road route ideas. I'm thinking that it may be too wet in the spring for the MTB

Bump....

I assumed you meant Virginia, not West Virginia. I hope you have a good time. Lots of hills, obviously.

Thanks!

I didn't even know that there was a Roanoke WV until I got the travel notice. Looks like it's not too far from either Charleston or Clarksburg, if that opens up any ride suggestions....
