Sorry, I didn’t take any pictures. Kept meaning to but keep forgetting. However, if I had taken pictures and if it had really happened...
We rode up to Tazewell, VA on Highway 16 and then US 460 from Tazewell to Princeton. The ride from Marion, VA to Tazewell (The Back of the Dragon) was great, you were right, Bob. My brother-in-law says that he liked it much better than The Tail of The Dragon for many reasons - no crowds, better elevation changes and turns, etc.
Princeton is an excellent base camp, you were right again, Bob – great tip. Nice choice of hotels and plenty ‘o food!
We didn’t have time to go further North because of the trip only being a one nighter. However, I did find the route below for a really good ride back down to the BR Parkway. Awesome roads, twisties and sweepers.
A quick hop down I-77 through the tunnel at the border of WV and VA, then US 52 to Wytheville, VA, The route from Wytheville to the BRP was the nice ride:
