I'm looking to ride up on my recently purchased ST to d.c to visit a friend from college. I looked at taking my bike up or back on the amtrack auto train but nixed that plan after deciding that going to orlando first to load or unload after (was too time restrictive + I read alot of reviews that indicate the train ride is not good) since I need to make it up and back over a three day weekend. I have used all my vacation but want to try a long ride an see some fall foliage.
I plan to leave Jax afternoon Thurs and stop and tent camp someplace near Charleston, SC. Then ride on up on I95 on Friday to d.c. to make time
I will leave d.c sat after brunch and maybe take the scenic tour through the middle of the state anddown to near Ashville nc and tent camp someplace. Then again through the middle of s.c and Ga on into Jax sunday.
Any tips for routes are appreciated. I have been up to the Fontana dam area and dragon a few times and used to live in D.C area so am familiar with the leaf peeper traffic that time of year on the VA/NC skyway.
