There are very few campers and or trailers on the park way. The steepness of the climbs have a tendancy to over heat engines and transmissions. But let me tell you there are motorcycles !!!! and lot's of them!!!

I would love to ride my bicycle on the Parkway. I rode it on my motorcycle a long time ago and that was a blast.

Day number 2 on the Blue Ridge parkway schedule.
Leaving the Peaks of Otter Lodge for Stonewall Bed and Breakfast. Today is 75+ miles with 17.4 miles of climbing at 3807 ft of elevation. Highlight of the day is a 5.5 mile climb coming out of Roanoke
