You can easily get off the BRP and grab a hotel, but we spent a night at Peaks of Otter right on the PKWY. Unbelievable views, great resturant, and some interesting hiking with lots of wildlife. No TV's, no cell reception, very relaxing.

There's a ton of info online that will help you plan. I've ridden the BRP end to end twice and it gets more challenging on the southern end. Northern end is more relaxing.

Here's some info you should print and keep in your saddlebag. Only three places to buy fuel on the BRP I think. Link here- http://www.blueridgeskyline.com/gas.php
