Since my camera battery died I'll have to wait until a bit later to post my pics, although with it just being a point and shoot I can't promise much.
Overall, an awesome day and a great drive! Hope to make something like this happen once a year! With more 7s next time.

Re: Mike the Madman ...all I can say about that is, you had to be there to fully understand.
We ended up eating at Marshall Diner, nothing too special but solid eats. I think we need to plan a spot for the next time. That parking lot couldn't have held many more 7s.
We will definitely be doing this again, I don't know about it being too often but I'm thinking we may want to make this a beginning and end to the CFA season? Possibly one in the middle? I dunno it will give us something to talk about during the long winter months.
Can't beat the price though

I was busy on sunday but if you do another drive I may go depending on when it is. If you are looking for a place to eat Front Royal has a few places right off the highway and there is a great pizza place on the way into town called the melting pot if anyone wants pizza/wings etc...

(Had to post this figured this thread would be best, reminded me so much of our trip.)
Did anyone else catch the new Top-Gear episode which the presenters take a trip to Va/NC to ride on the Blue Ridge Parkway. Check out the clip of them riding around at 35. Haha, don't we all know what that feels like
Check out later in the film too when they take some laps around VIR. After that they drive up through DC (en route to NYC) and roll around in South East.
Here's a link for the show if you don't get BBC

I'm sure they did close it, at least the section that they tore down to get into NC (Called Grandfather Mountain http://www.bbcamerica.com/us/forums/viewthread/1588/). I think that they just wanted to make a point about how ridiculous it is to have such a great road with that speed limit.
I wonder if they went over to (or even know about) Deals Gap?
