Something convinced me to make a right turn off of US 119 north towards Morgantown, north of Charelston, and head east on US 33 to meet up with Schultz in Roanoke. Turned out to be a great decision. US 33 is one of the greats roads I have ever driven, riden or rowed. Between Buckhannon WV and Roanoke VA is winds through the Allegheny mountains, up to 3500 feet, across the eastern continental divide, past Senaca rocks, Blackwater falls. The roads are in excellent condition. They climb, dip, wind, curve with spectacular views. I am now determined to travel every US Hwy in America (in between trying to visit every planet on earth). On this trip alone I have been treated to US 11, US 27, US 119 and US 33. All incredible. Who knew these great roads were out here....not me!

Riding at sunrise just north of Charleston. It is more than real, it is magic.
Swell little town of Elkins WV
Diggers, diggers, diggers....that is what my kids used to scream at all construction equipment. If they were working we would stop for hours to watch them, no matter where in the country or where in the world we were. The badass diggers were doing some major stuff along US 33.
Whoops, almost went a whole day of blogging without my posing the vortex. hahahaha
