This was a great ride, we did it this past weekend. I have to tell you though, the best ride was country road 12, just south of Cheaha park. Right as you are going down the mountain heading south, you will see a sign pointing to the right for Anniston/Talladega. This is a tight little old road with a TON of fun turns. I loved the beauty and fun of the main skyway, but this backroad was a ton of fun!

I just did most of this route on the 19th. It is still breathtaking even with a light midst covering most of the tree line. The road quality is great and the turns are epic. Riders the asphalt is smooth and mostly free of debris but there are multiple instances of steep downhills leading to hard turns so care must exercised. The right hand turn off from 281 southbound on to Cheaha Rd towards Anniston deserves its own route listing.

Just a note: 281 does end but now you can take a small paved road to the left now (watch for loose gravel) and when it dead ends after about 2 miles, you can take a left to end up on 49 or a right to end up on 77. I just like to have a continuous ride and not have to back track so this road helps you do that.

Great trip with lots of scenery and curves. The road quality varies as some of it is paved with oil and gravel chips and has some loose gravel. The road has plenty of turns and hills and is a wonderful ride but like all roads caution must be used. The road has limited access so turning cars and driveways are limited. Our ride through here was in the December and most of the trees were bare but it is still a great ride.

I would like to this ride this spring but one biker forum says the Skyway road quality is terrible now. They mentioned "tar snakes". If the road is ok I will go to see the Dogwoods.

The only thing that was no mentioned that should have is the state park has many things to see and do if your want to take a break, or even stay the night at the motel with pool or swim in the lake atthe foot of the hill and a great restaurant to eat at with a wonderful view out the glass side over the mountain

Headed home today and decided to try this route out. I was suprised by how enjoyable it was. The road is in great shape with good views. Not a tight, twisty ride but offers some speed and turns which was exactly what we hoped for on this perfect day. Again, not a long route but fun--wish we had turned around and road it again!
