I came into New River Gorge from farther west on 19 North / South just off of the North Beckley exit at Exit 48. It is an amazing place to stop and smell the roses. you can stay at a local campgrond called Riftrafters for only $18 bucks a night in a cabin and that was the best deal I found inthe area. Tons of coal mines , and whitewater rafting all over the surrounding area. If you haven't been to the gorge yet it is one of themust see destinations in the US.

We just ran from Clendenin to New River Bridge by way of Lizemore Rd (thru Bomont/Glen). Lizemore Rd is not for the faint of heart. Narrow hollow road, no guard rails, good pavement with many, many short, tight turns. Hwy 16 down to Gauley Bridge today has many longitudinal (sp) cut/patch repairs and sections of washboard. Can be a beautiful ride if you take the time to 'smell the roses'.

We just got back from this ride. It was wonderful! Scenery was amazing. Very curvy but roads are nice and wide and easy to take turns. Summersville had adequate lodging and places to eat. We ended up getting some rain in evening so we went to a movie there is Summersville. Lots of little places and waterfalls to pull off and enjoy the scenery on our way to the Gorge bridge.

The only thing that I would do to this route given that starting and ending points is stay on 60 until you get to Hawks Nest State Park then turn around and go the way the route has you after hitting the park. That route 60 bit just before that state park is really quite fun and would be a shame to pass up a since you're riding right by it. After that continue down 19 best route is stated. Do it. You won't be sorry.

Wonderful WVA, the roads here are as good as it gets for twists, turns, elevation gains. beautiful scenery. Compare it to NC, and KY same type of roads.
