Good morning one and all; I just joined the group this morning. I live in Delaware and have a 02' BMW R1150RS. I commute back and forth to work on a daily basis (35 miles each way), including winter (bar ice and snow), and try to get a few long trips in each year as well. My best friend (of 37 years) is taking the AutoTrain from Florida on Sunday May 4th to Lorton, VA, arriving May 5th. I will be driving down from Delaware to meet him on the 5th, and we will promptly be heading for the Blue Ridge. We plan on spending 2-days on the BRP, ending up in Robbinsville on the evening of the 6th. The 7th will be Deal's Gap and Cherohala Skyway, and then an overnight in Blairsville, GA at a friends home. On the morning of the 8th my buddy heads to South Florida, and I head back to Delaware.
My question to the group, as the BRP is your expertise, is this time table too agressive to enjoy the BRP? The problem is, I have to be back early evening on the 9th (daughters prom - anyone with a teenaged daughter understands the importance of this event), and we can not leave Lorton, VA before the 5th due to my friends schedule.
Thanks in advance for your comments and suggestions.
