Ride Recommendation (Front Royal, Luray & Surrounding)
#1
I'm not sure how many people actually have running bikes or how much longer the riding season is gonna last but here ya go. The section between G and K are just plain awesome. I actually think G thru I are better than 211 'cause it's a backroad that winds up and down the valley but that's just me.

<!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q=Fort+Valley,+VA+22652&ie=UTF8&z=11&ll=38.804935,-78.361359&spn=0.29002,0.682526&t=h&om=1">http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&hl=en&q ... 6&t=h&om=1</a><!-- m -->

Total loop is about 160 miles.

55 > 340 > Fort Vallet > Camp Roosevelt > Bixlers Ferry > 211

It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth

whoa, if you wanted to cut that short, that area in the left loop that cuts through the green state park section looks wicked

when u planning this ride?

Only issue IMHO is the leaves - i was back in clifton and some areas in hoodbridge friday and saturday - and the leaf amount was ridiculous, i lost the rear numerous times.

We rode it saturday, no leaf issues - just traffic on 211 and the RC51 seat is some sort of torture device.
