RE: 2016 CB1100 Rally East - Bland, VA - June 1-4
Lee, Pat and I made it home to central Florida Saturday about 6pm. We had a great time, enjoyed meeting, riding, bbq'ing and all the rest. You guys are definitely family and we look forward to seeing you next year! Thanks to everyone who came, planned, got sponsors, set stuff up, led rides, and on and on

I would probably give a tip to Bland, simply because there werent crowds of people like around Robbinsville, however the roads, terrain etc are very similar being not far apart. There was some fantastic riding around Bland that's for sure. I think being right off a freeway it more accessible too. No Cherohola Highway though in Bland which to me is the best part of where we were last year, but the Blue Ridge Parkway is not far away. Rt 16 is very Dragon like and the rest of the roads I road were more what I call rythmn roads with well timed lefts and rights which are not too technical.

I found the roads to the Northwest in WV to be the best part of the rally riding. To ride the length of 16 from Marion to the far border of WV is now on my bucket list. Of course, it may have been great because of the good company of Christian and Scott, but still

I agree with Ferret. What VA didn't seem to have was the high elevations and all the beautiful overlooks that were so abundant in NC. I only found one, it was on rt11 near Pulaski.
