Scenery
This route gets you to the exciting Shenandoah Mountain twisties, but off the beaten path.
On Crest Hill Road, there are rolling grassy hills and farms. And yet in some spots, there is growth so close to the road that you are driving through a canopy of trees reaching over top of you. There are a few one-lane bridges, so keep your eyes peeled.
When Crest Hill Road ends in Flint Hill, you can grab a bite to eat at The Griffin Tavern, and continue to Washington VA on Fodderstack Road. Fodderstack has more beautiful views of rolling hills and farm land. This road ends in Washington, VA, a beautiful little town.
Finally, you are brought to 211 which you can take through the Shenandoah mountain climb. A wonderful, well-paved road that should get any 2-wheeler their chance to lean over.
Drive Enjoyment
Crest Hill Road and Fodderstack Road have some rough spots, but no pot holes. Any bike should be able to handle them with no problem.
211 is a well-maintained highway and the mountain climb up to and down from the entrance to Shenandoah National Park is wonderful. Keep your eye out for gravel on the twisties, which are occasionally stirred up by vehicles that can't seem to keep their wheels on the road.
Tourism Opportunities
You will see nothing until Flint Hill (where Crest Hill Road ends). There you'll find the Griffin Tavern, which is a great little restaurant.
In Washington, there is a very expensive Inn where you can eat.
Once on 211, you'll find a great burger joint on the left (heading West) when you enter Sperryville. Great burgers, fries, and milk.shakes.
