1addicts are doing a drive today.....here are the details....sorry, I'm late to posting!

Not sure if any M's will be there tho???

Join us for a Fall Cruise from the DC area out to Skyline Drive!
We'll be meeting in the Tysons Corner/Falls Church VA area first, and later near Gainesville just off 66 for those that might not want to meet at the first location. After that we'll be cruising to the Skyline Drive entry at Front Royal.

-Local 1er & 2er owners group
-Direct FB Event link (must be in group)

Cruise Plan and Timing:
-First Meet Point @ 10:30AM
Astro Doughnuts and Fried Chicken (amazing breakfast)
7511 Leesburg Pike #103, Falls Church VA 22043

-Second Meet Point @ 11:15AM
Sheetz w/e85 and 93oct
15315 Washington St, Haymarket VA 20169

-Front Royal Entry to Skyline Drive @ 12PM
17157 Skyline Drive, Front Royal VA 22630

Stops Along Skyline:
#1 - 10mins past entry is the Dickey Ridge Visitor Center. We can stop here to food from the meet points and wait if anyone is running late. Also the first of many nice views.
#2 - 30min in is the Range View Overlook, rated one of the best views.
#3 - 5mins after Range View is Hogback Overlook, another great spot. Between here and the next spot is Route 211, if you branch off at this point it'll be a 1.5hr drive back to Tysons Corner.
#4 - 20 mins after Hogback is a small tunnel and quite a few scenic overlooks in a close area.

I think this is a good place to end the drive if anyone wants to head back it's only a few minutes to Route 211. If you decide to keep going the next major route is Rt 33 which is an hour away and then from there it's 2hrs back to Tysons.
