Randy Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 I'm exploring the possibility of holding a Spine Raid in VA next year the weekend after the 4th of July 2024. I'm still looking at locations but this one is a good possibility: https://www.breakspark.com/the-lodge I've also roughed out a 5 hour ride for Saturday. May possibly add a side route that takes us up to Burkes Garden. Other possibilities are the Tazewell and Wytheville areas but there doesn't seem to be anything other than hotels for lodging.

Joe Posted May 15 Report Share Posted May 15 Randy, it’s hard to replicate the perfect location & accommodations of The Lodge at Tellico. A garage isn’t necessary but seems to be a piece of the Spine Raid puzzle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom in Virginia Posted May 22 Report Share Posted May 22 I 2nd to the looks of great riding close by, have never focused on this part of SW VA. I would note that if they are still trucking coal on those roads it can make for a miserable day, dusty, slow and hot. However, I imagine most of that area has stopped mining coal by now.
