Imagine 6 days of riding along one of the most beautiful mountain roads ever built! Winding through the Appalachian Mountains, you get to journey alone the 470-mile Blue Ridge Parkway - a dream of twists and turns, colors and vistas where billboards and commercial traffic are both banned. On top of this amazing riding, you will tear up the notorious Tail of the Dragon – 318 turns in only 11 miles, what more could you want?
You will join a group for this fixed itinerary. However we can add additional nights at the start or end of your holiday if you wish.
You’ll arrive in Nashville, known as Music City. Legendary country music venues include the Grand Ole Opry House, The Country Music Hall of Fame and the historic Ryman Auditorium. Downtown are legendary honky-tonks, dive bars, and dance halls. If you'd like to come in a day or two early to experience Nashville then please let us know.

Our last day on riding on the Blue Ridge will be leisurely with plenty of time to stop and explore. Speeds are slow but the views are spectacular with your biggest issue being the amount of wildlife along the road. We have seen wild pigs and bears on this ride. Your hotel for the night is right on the edge of the parkway in rural Virginia.
