I just became aware of this area in southern VA - in 2012 they officially named their road the "Back of the Dragon" and hope to cash in on the tourism dollars that motorcycle riders create. The area is about the same distance from where I live as the other "'Dragon" - however my online searches haven't revealed and really good motorcycle oriented campgrounds or hotels like they have in TN/NC. Places like the Kickstand Lodge, BlueRidge Motorcycle Campground, Deals Gap and Two Wheels of Suches have gotten me a bit spoiled in value, convenience and nice quiet places to sleep. If the area has similar roads to ride the area doesn't have the afternoon showers that chase me around the Deals Gap area every afternoon....it might be a good area to go riding.

Is anyone familiar with the riding in this area - and can recommend good places to camp?
Thanks - Dave
