Great link, Zen!!
A terrific non-biking side trip, Cyclesome, if you have time and inclination, is a walk on the AT on the summit of Whitetop. The views are spectacular. (See pic below w/small dog in middle.) The Virginia Creeper Trail might offer similar breath-taking views; I bet CA_in_NC would know.
Hiking to the top of Mount Rogers (right next door, elevation 5729') is a great outing, too. Encountering the wild ponies on the trail is a treat---'though my dog Samantha has mixed feelings about 'em!![]()

Great site, Zen. Thanks for the Information for all.
I was looking at that site myself.
If I had someone to drive me down there I'd like to go west to east in one day, stay at the Iron horse Campground* then go back.
I tend to get sleepy driving that far, though
*their site says they 'provide full hook-ups'

I sent the site to a friend down in Richmond, suggesting we do it together - but if I'm driving down there - I could take you. Except she's one of those friends who's always painting or renovating her house instead of doing fun things with me, which makes it a very hypothetical trip.
I'm not sure if we'd cycle & camp partway to do some hiking, or straight in one day.
Does your bike require full hook ups?
I was thinking of , uh..., another type of hook up entirely![]()
