My son (just graduated HS) and I took a ride down the Blue Ridge Parkway to get some father/son time in before he heads off to college. We went from mile post 0 to mile post 469 (beginning to end of the BRP) in two days. Met up with my Uncle (rides a GW trike) in Boone N.C. and rode the rest of the Parkway together.
What a trip! It was my first time riding down the entire BRP, and other than experiencing some serious thunderstorms while in the clouds (w/5 feet visibility) it was one of the best road trips I've made.
I've ridden a trike all over the Smokey Mountains, from Maggie Valley to Pigeon Forge, but for some reason I had never ridden the BRP.
Now, I plan on doing it once a year or so. I'd recommend this ride to anyone who is in the area and has two or three days to spare.
