I took this today on a whim, and while it isn't long, it is absolutely beautiful, just watch out for some downhill decreasing-radius turns!

Look close John, it's Mt Carmel on the Rt 50 side and River Rd on the Rt 7 end.
Both are nice roads.

I am also a fan of the Mt Weather Rd, but I'd ridden it several times this summer, so I was looking for something new. On the other side of the ridge there is a nice gravel route that also runs between Rt 7 and Rt 50 (Snickerville TPKE to Foggy Bottom Rd to Ridgeside Rd to Trappe Rd). A big chunk of Trappe Rd is single lane gravel, but it takes you right up to the foot of the Weather Mountain EOC, which is a pretty cool view.
