One week, 2,000 miles on the CB500X Moto camping
Went from Ohio, to camp night one in Central Kentucky. Then down to a bike camp at the start of the Cherohala Highway that I did the following day, followed by the tail of the Dragon.
Spend the next few days exploring the Blue Ridge Parkway, including a firetower and Mt. Mitchell.
FInished off the trip going back to Ohio thru my favorite part of WV - Monongahela National Park.
My trip lasted 1 week and 5 hours, and 2018 miles. Spend every night tent camping other than one night in a tiny cabin, and last night treating myself to a lodge.
Tail of the Dragon was fun! Got to do that on a Monday, so traffic was manageable. Got passed by a Corvette on the way up (used a pullover to let them by) and then had it all to myself till the last 2 miles when I caught up to some 300-ish sized bikes. After zipping by the lake for a bit, came back down with it mostly to myself again.
The Cherohala Highway and Blue Ridge were amazing, mostly due to zero traffic on Cherohala Highway, and very little on the parkway. About half the time traffic on the Blue Ridge would pull over at an overlook and let me pass.
The bike did great, averaged 55mpg, and got a wash and oil change once home.
