Craka, keep me posted (I'll watch the thread) as I'm making the same trip early July, going to Gaitlinburg from NYC. I'll start at the Outterbridge and figure I'd make Front Royal in a day also. The next days ride on Skyline should prove to be relaxing, did it in a Miata in 2000, wish I had taken my Bike instead.
