Ride Details
Skyline Drive and Blueridge Parkway - July 2nd - 5th, 2009

We are currently planning to leave from Knoxville, Tennessee and will be meeting at McDonald's on I-40 Exit 407 on the East side on Knoxville. Departure time will be AROUND 4:00 PM.  Why the uncertainty on departure times? Because we are trying to be flexible with those that will be working on Thursday so possibly they can leave town with us. (Contact me with your particulars and let see what I can do about adjusting our departure time.)

This ride will cover the entire lengths of Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway. Travel Northbound will be via Interstates.

    Here is a list of the accommodations to date. Please check this page often and make reservations as we do so as to assure we all stay in the same hotel.
