One my first tour on my Honda BR, I was riding from here in York PA down to Hickory NC. for a CON ride get together, with Ruckus/Grom folk.
I was riding alone, and had no idea of far I could get in a days ride.
I picked Roanoke as my stop over for the night.
There was also another guy going down to CON from TotalRuckus, I did not know, but thought maybe I'd bump into him.
We did get ride a lot miles together that weekend, he has a 150gy6 packed into his
stretched Ruckus.
Anyway, Roanoke is an awesome scooter town.
Me, for myself, after owning and riding a 150 cc china doll, all I'll say, I was glad for having the 250cc motor under me.
Lots of your hills had me barely keeping up to posted speed.
The next day I decide I'm going to ride the 12 oclock knob road down to RT 221
HOLY FREAKING BUCKING BRONCO!!!
That road needs to be listed as a must run, as all scooter lovers in you area should give her a go.
I could not do the speed limit anywhere on it, it was like *hard road mountain climbing, on twister steroids*!!
And then *controlled falling down on twister steroids* on the other side!! The most twisted road I ever rode upon!!
It was freaking killer fun!!
Buy as many CC's as you can afford man. And most definitely take a MC/scooter course, mine saved me a few times now.
Good Luck.
