VA fall ride?

Correct. I thought that might add too much time to the route. Anyone is certainly welcome to deviate and head that way though.
Depends on how much water I'm drinking!
Hard to say Tom...I don't know the route, but I'd say a stop every hour is good for a stretching of the legs at least...
Taking 33 from VA to WV is one hell of a run over the mountain between the state lines. You run through open rolling hills into the National forest which is about a couple of miles of straight road w/dense forest...THEN you hit the MOUNTAIN kinda steep w/plenty of tight curves and a few you can see the back of the bike on up and down. Sweet...with plenty of curves to scrape the pegs and smooth asphalt w/good bite. Kinda a secret for riders in the area. Its a little run to get there unless you live in Harrisonburg, VA. Trust me you will want to run this mountain a couple of times.
Thanks Dulimon. We're headed the other way on 33 though. I do want to go west on 33 some day to WV. I've heard it's great!
Postal.
Dang women, want'n to stop every 1/2 hour....Depends on how much water I'm drinking!

But seriously, every hour is good for me and my bladder.
I tentatively have four stops scheduled, Warrenton (where we pick up 211 W), Luray, Harrisonburg, and Gordonsville These places are circled on the map). If Sage and I get to do the pre-run on the 25th we will pick out definite places to stop at these locations. Sound good?
Depending on work we (the significant other "the loan dept") will be coming since we're only a hour away from the starting point. I read an earlier post about Foxes pizza and thought I would drop a little info about the MOUNTAIN. The planned loop is wonderful and anyone riding it for the first time will enjoy it greatly. Just watch out for leaves on the road. They will still be blowing. Keep me up to date on the pre run. I'll be ready to blow off some serious steam after the past few months of work. I'm getting to the point every time I walk past the bike I can here her idling and the better half is starting to ask to go riding.

Winchester got hit at the airport and surrounding areas. The outskirts of town received some damage to homes and cars. I was talking to a friend last night. He had parts of some ones roof fly into his yard and trees...the closest homes were about 2 miles away. An appx. 250 yr old Oak tree was in some ones front yard with no idea where it came from. Downtown Winchester flooded with the water levels up to car bumpers. No reports yet of total homes damaged.

Hey guys, I am brand new here, but I LOVE the busa. I am a Warrenton native and would like to know if I could crash your meet and just look at your rides if I am in the area that weekend (I am in college right now). Some people already mentioned it, but Sheetz, Frost's, Red Hot& Blue, and Subway (huge parking lot, and it's right behind sheetz in the Giant shopping center) are some good places to meet in Warrenton. I used to be in a couple of car clubs, and I have seen massive car gatherings in Warrenton before (Miata meet had at least 40-50 cars just in NoVa alone on the way to a meet) and it usually works out pretty well. Anyways, at the risk of sounding like a COMPLETE newbie, I am 22 and would just like to look over some versions of my dream bike.
