Sky Line Drive and the Blue Ridge Parkway drove me nuts. Once was enough ! The best drives are out west imho. The Dragon's Tail is over crowded now too.

Someday I will pick up a c7 at the museum, then visit friends in NC and was planning on returning to NY via the Blue Ridge Parkway, DC and gettysburgh.

Was the BRP to slow? To many turns? thanks....

Don't do it in the fall ........... Way to many peeps looking at trees. Seriously ! Max speed limit is 35 mph ........... And they do patrol it. I simply would drive it in short segments then jump off onto a different highway for a while. VA is a long state to try and do 35 mph.

Va is also a stae that frowns on radar detectors. What is worse is they use their own detectors for determining who is using a radar detector? Last I heard they give you a choice...... they smash it or give you a ticket that involves a trip to the county tax collector

Any on ramp if not on a country road. Blue ridge parkway or Road Atlanta .

If you don't like the Blue Ridge Parkway, you don't know when to go. I've been doing it for about 27 years with sport bikes and Corvettes (couple other sports cars too), and will as long as I can. Official speed limit is 45 for most of it, but really not a limitation. Also there are many roads as cool as the Dragon, but unknown and not overcrowded or patrolled.

I've been driving the NC mountains all my life. There are plenty of roads up there that are fun to drive besides the Dragon's Tail. It's just too crowded and over-patrolled nowadays. Hwy. 276 from Brevard into the Pisgah National Forest is awesome for instance. It even crosses the Blue Ridge Parkway. There are tons of others.

Just did 276 last week! As fun as ever.

Don't know about you, but I've never seen a cop there. With all the technical curves, sweepers, switchbacks and esses, going over the limit for long enough to get in trouble with one is nigh impossible. Can't wait to get the Stingray up there.

The twisted sisters in the Hill Country of Texas, state Hwy's 335, 336, and 337 !

I suspect (hope) it will not be long before we see pictures of new C7's on some of these roads along with personal impressions of the car and the drive.......... as long as they are willing to take the time away from enjoying the ride

If you're in AZ you should know Hwy 89A Prescott to Jerome, that's. fun one.

Funny, they included Puerto Rico, but nothing west of the Mississippi.

Rad22

Been there...done that...got the speeding ticket. Still awesome.

I'll be trying it on the Pacific Coast Highway between San Luis Obispo and Monterey.

Back when I lived in the San Francisco Bay Area, my favorite trip was driving up Mt. Hamilton Road to Lick Observatory. If you are in the area and haven't done this, plan it! An absolutely marvelous drive.

Now I'm in the flatlands of central North Carolina. Four hours to get to the mountains. Waaahhhh!

ATC

Never seen one there. No Rangers on that part of the Parkway either.

First time I drove the Blue Ridge Parkway(entire distance) was August, 1958. Last time was October, 2011, western segment. I also drove the Dragon October, 2011, and doubt if I'll drive it again. Too many Harleys that think they own it.
