    Is that also called King's Highway. If it is you are fine. Few small hills.

    Oh ok. I think I have been there before. Been to a couple places out there. Just be careful turning into it. If it is the one I am thinking of the turn is a bit tight. Very doable, just watch what you are doing.

    That's to 77 at Fancy GAP. The problem I wonder is if this is the upgrade portion of the OLD fancy gap, it might be restricted to trucks. I know the downgrade portion of the OLD fancy gap road is barred to anything over 8 ton.
     
    CrappieJunkie Thanks this.

    Ok. I think I know which one you are referencing. I think the road I was thinking of was 321.

    It's fine I run it alot between 85 and Roxboro or hook up with it coming out of Richmond on 360. A few hills but mostly 4 lane. Watch your speed they take spells where they like to hide in the middle in sections and you won't see them till it's too late.

    Limited places to park but there is a pilot in south Boston almost right across the highway from that DC.
     
    Longarm and CrappieJunkie Thank this.
