I was just on that road Sunday. It really varies from one area to another, but the good spots are hard to beat!
I did a 5 day motorcycle trip last spring and caught BRP and Cherohala (sp?) Skyway right at dusk on back-to-back days. I don't know if another street ride will ever top that. |

Just an FYI the closed "Craggy Garden" section is due to open one lane on May15. Hope to have it completly opened some time in June. Anybody that wants maps or info just let me know.
It's a great road but driving it everyday as a job I tend to avoid it on my days off.

I hate the cherrycola. It's only fun at triple digits and at triple digits those rusty guardrails are KNIVES!!!!!!1111oneoneone
Not to mention if I get a ticket for that on the cherrycola, I probably will lose my job. Federal ticket = no fun.
