- The Bolling Wilson Hotel
This place looks interesting but might be a bit costly. Just FYI.

I was thinking about calling and asking if they would welcome a biker group? I will of course mention that our average age is close to 70 so we should not be to wild. Just a bunch of old geezers out for a meet and stroll.

Hey, im not THAT old!!!

the time they post on these is just a challenge, you can do quicker then that, we have LED signs on the highways here, that tell you, so much time to this exit, or that exit, they are just showing you the time to beat. we also have signs on some streets here that flash up and show you how fast you are going, that's the high score sign, we all try to get a high score, if you do, it starts flashing red and other lights start blinking, it's great, luckily they got rid of all the speed camera's here, though they did take a nice picture of you and your bike, they penalty that comes with it, eh not so nice.

Learned all about speed cameras in Colombia a few months back, no cops, no warnings, if you break the speed limit you get an email a few minutes later with the amount you have to pay, for what they told me, the smallest fine is one minimum wage, they pay monthly not hourly like here, one minimum wage is the equivalent to $400 USD, When i was riding my friends bike and he was behind me with the family in his car, he was sweating bullets, i didn't know the laws and i was flying down the road, lucky for me, the only camera i ran across was not activated at that moment

Just throwing this out to put in the mix.

Willville Bike Camp

They have a few cabins and amble camping space, bonfire scene nightly. Very eclectic mix of bikes and riders.

Google Maps

1hour 14 minutes to Back of the Dragon, but I'd take a longer less direct route....

I've stayed there several times and always had a good experience. The number of cabins and availability might be the limiting factor for our group.

Regardless of where to stay, another ride near Back of the Dragon (Marion to Tazwell, VA) that I don't think has been mentioned is the Devil's Thumbprint at Burkes Garden, not far from Tazwell (top of Back of the Dragon).

Burkes garden is beautiful but its call God's Thumbprint. Road that area it has Amish community you'll see horse drawn buggies down there. Now a little more west over by Duffield Virginia is the devils bathtub.
