240 miles, 6 hours in the saddle. Nice ride with some dirt / gravel mountain roads. Here is the route I took.

This was a classic Scrambler ride. It included interstate highway, state highway, rural asphalt, crush and run, gravel and dirt roads. Going over the mountain into W.Va. on Crooked Run road was amazing. Lots of steep gravel /dirt with switch backs and some large stony terrain. I don't know how anything but a jeep could handle this road. The Scrambler did a great job.
Incredible views and mountain countryside. I highly recommend this ride to anyone with a Scrambler or dual sport.
I only stopped a few times and the following pics do not do the views justice. But here they are anyway.
