**MULTI DAY EVENT**

Ride Title: Blue Ridge Parkway

Description: This year we're going to ride the entire length of Skyline Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway. This will be a solid week long depending on what you decide to do.  This ride is set up to go for the entire length or join any day and split off on any day.  I'll leave Sunday morning and ride to Tygart State Park in West Virginia which has camping or a lodge.  Monday we'll make our way to Skyline Drive and spend the night at Big Meadow Campground or Lodge, your choice!  On Tuesday we'll finish Skyline Drive and Start on the Blue Ridge Parkway.  We'll stay the night at Fancy Gap Cabins and Campgrounds also have a motel, which is right off I-77, a good spot to catch up later in the week.  From there we'll ride to Mt Pisgah Campground and Pisgah Inn, we'll be staying here for two nights to check out some of the cool stuff in the area.  Possibly Wheels through Time, Chimney Rock, The Biltmore Estate.  We have options.  On Friday, we'll ride through the Great Smokey Mountains and you can either Camp at Elkton Group Site in the Great Smokey Mountains or you can stay at the Hampton Inn (or anywhere else) in Gatlinburg.  We'll stay in Gatlinburg for two nights as well.  When we come home on Sunday, you can head straight back or take an extra day to ride through the Nada Tunnel and spend the night at Natural Bridge State Park. I have hotels and campgrounds picked out for each night. All the information for the ride is here and on the Google Doc, we can do whatever we want to fill the rest of the time.  There will be plenty of it!  I do suggest we hold a ride meeting 2 to 3 months prior to the ride to refine the agenda.
