i rode portions of that road last week..I would say it is in fair condition..some potholes but nothing you can't avoid. Off the road, the scenery is breath taking and well worth it.

Should have put this under road trips, classic newbie mistake. Maybe a moderator will move it where it should be.
BTW where is Hot Dog world?

Yep, I was just on that road 2 weeks ago coming home from the Outer-banks of North Carolina. Road was nice enough for what I could see. Thunderstorms the whole way!
