I drove from the northern start in Afton Virginia to Roanoke, 110 miles of bends, blind curves and swichbacks! Elevation went from below 500 to over 3500 feet several times. One of the best driving days I have ever had!
The second was a beauty! More of the same drive, from Roanoke to mile marker 275+ before being detoured, I then finished the day in Charlotte, NC
