Title: Route Help! Post by: the_Journeyman on May 12, 2008, 07:49:18 AM Didn't see a local club for the WV & VA area, so I'll post here. There's got to be someone on here in/near/familiar with this area
I'm heading to Marlinton, West Virginia this weekend. My route is pretty straight forward with the exception of one little spot. I'll be entering VA on I-81 from Tennessee, following it until I pick up I-77 north. Here's where I have two options. 1. Pick up 460/219 where I-77 crosses it near Princeton and follow 219 into Marlinton. 2. Stay on I-77 until it reach I-64, pick it up eastbound until it crosses 219, pick up & follow 219 into Marlinton. According to Yahoo! Maps, here's the difference. (Princeton, WV to Marlinton, WV) Option #1 is 2H 23M & 106.3 miles, Option #2 is 2H 10M, 123.8 miles. What I need to know is 1) How twistly is 219 2) What is the posted limit on 219 (if it's not 55, better time could be made w/ option #2 Anything helpful is appreciated [thumbsup] JM Title: Re: Route Help!
