The first thing you will see is a billboard warning people about this road! RV's and trailers are warned to stay off this road! You will love it on a bike!!!

I can understand why you (OP) ask about tourist type stops, but you never asked about great roads in the mountains??? Dude, there are some great roads up there that are better than the Dragon or Hellbender!
I have to agree with you here. I grew up in the Marion area and use to travel Hwy 80 often on both a motorcycle and a '65 Mustang great roads.

Also check out Little Switzerland and the Little Switzerland Loop. http://www.trails.com/tcatalog_trail...lid=XMP002-016
A good map at this one

Still there last time I rode through. But that was early last year before my oldest travel softball season got into full swing then my riding time went WAY DOWN...lol

It has changed names a few times over not sure what they are calling it this year..lol

I would recommend Grandfather Mountain south of Boone and not far off of the Blue Ridge Parkway. Close by there is also Linville Falls. Both are worth the hour or two at each stop.
