Is the Blue Ridge Parkway a good ride? I have a HD lowrider. If not, any suggestions for a good one.?

I will be leaving from the Cherokee NC end. I live in Knoxville TN, so if there are any good 2 or 3 day rides in this area that I may not be aware of please let me know. I know most of them. Also, any points of interest on the blue ridge parkway would be nice to know.Is the Blue Ridge Parkway a good ride? I have a HD lowrider. If not, any suggestions for a good one.?
It is the best ride I have taken so far ,just be sure to gas up it is far in between gas stops %26amp; take warm clothing it gets kind of chilly. the views are spectacular, one scenic view after anotherIs the Blue Ridge Parkway a good ride?

Blue Ridge Parkway rocks! Luray Caverns %26amp; Natural Bridge are a couple of good spots to cruise to.

PS You will do some serious countersteering on that HD.
I rode on BRP, and Deals Gap but the Cherahola Skyway was my favorite.
Blue Ridge is awesome, I regularly travel between Knoxville and Charlotte.
all i can tell you is to be extremely cautious on the parkway. the fog can become so bad that they actually have lights along the edge of the road so you will be able to stay on the road. its pretty dangerous in the morns and evenins and in rainy weather.





but, i dont really know what to tell you about other ways to go.





good luck and be careful.
Yeah, it's a great place to ride. You've already gotten lots of good suggestions but I'll add this; At the cross roads of Hwy 18 and the BRP check out the ';Stations Inn';. http://stationsinn.com/index-a.html Really cool place run by some good folks.





You might want to check into getting a map from Mad Maps. http://www.madmaps.com/store/trav_smok.a鈥?/a> Lots of good information and some good suggested routes as well.
The parkway is a fantastic ride. Keep in mind that it can easily be 20 degrees cooler on the parkway. Last Oct we ran into snow! Was in the 70s leaving Atlanta. Also, alot of the other highways that intersect with the parkway have fanstastic riding. Another poster mentioned the Cherohala skyway. That is a great ride also. Highway 64 from Frankin east is great. 215 is a very cool road. 276 comming up from SC over to Brevard is great. Highway 19 through NC is nice. Highway 221 going towards Boone is also very cool. 221 runs parallel with the parkway from Chimney rock into Va and for the hundred miles from about spruce pine to VA line is better than the parkway. It's cool looking up at the lynn cove viaduct from the bottom. Also 107 from around spruce pine, pinola is very nice. Bottom line, almost any highway up in the high country is fantastic. If you do the parkway, try to hit it on a week day. I have a website which covers biker stuff in Ga. I have a few ride reports from rides in the mountains( including last years ride down the parkway) as well as links to other sites with info about riding the smokies.
