Title: Great Routes in WV
Post by: mojohand on September 09, 2015, 07:26:25 PM: I'm headed to the FJR eastern owners' meetup (EOM) later this month. They've got some great routes mapped out.Thought some of us might want to have them for reference. Some great riding!

Another of my favorites is US17 "Snowy Mountain Road from Cherry Creek WV to Harper WV. The road is nice but when you get to the top and look down through the valley back towards Cherry Creek the view is spectacular.

I think you mean CR17 from WV28 in Cherry Grove, WV over the mountain to US220 near Harper, WV?

This is looking towards Cherry Grove:

Yes CR in lieu of US. All the cattle we saw in the fields had legs 10" shorter on one side.

Thanks for sharing :)

Here was my weekend loop from a couple of weekends back...some of the same goodness
