Coyner's affection for the region is clear in his lyrical descriptions of the best roads to ancient caverns, covered bridges, rolling farm country, Civil War battlefields and president's homes. Includes coverage of the famed Skyline Drive and Blue Ridge Parkway, and features up-to-date suggestions for restaurants and lodging along each of the routes. | |

Head of the travel book class Feb 09, 2005
By Lynn Bryce
Of all the travel books in my collection, Motorcycle Journeys Through The Appalachians is my favorite. I have not come across another touring guide that covers this part of the country so well. I have sold my bike but still find Motorcycle Journeys to be a great reference for planning a weekend outing with my wife and kids. I would have liked a little more detail in the table of contents but that's a minor wrinkle in light of the value this book delivers. Mileage to waypoints, maps, terrain descriptions, highlights make the trips easy to follow and enjoy. In addition to being very thorough, Coyner's writing style is entertaining and the book is a fun read. If your journeys will take you through the Appalachians, this book is a must-have companion.

Useful and witty resource Feb 08, 2005
By A. Paul
It's not just for motorcyclists! A friend gave me this book when I was planning an anniversary trip in Virginia's Appalachian mountains. I found myself not just browsing for information on the area I wanted to visit, but reading the entire book for sheer enjoyment (and annoying my family by reading bits of it out loud to them). Coyner has thoroughly researched every trip and offers timely advice about roads, weather conditions, places of interest, restaurants, etc... Not only is the book useful as a travel guide, it's a hoot to read. I would recommend it to anyone who's planning travels in the Appalachians -- whether you're riding in your car or on a motorcycle.

Practical Guide Accompanied By Measured Humor Apr 11, 2005
By Hencequently
"Ben"
For me there are three parts to a good trip - the preparation, the adventure itself, and then the memories. This book has helped me a long way in achieving all these pleasure points. The maps and text are wonderful; the crafty photo's with tasty captions peppered appropriately throughout this guide left my partner (who does not accompany me) recommending more sights than I could handle. A keeper, if not just for that.

excellent book for motorcyle enthusiasts Jul 18, 2007
By T. Geery
great book detailing not just roads, but local custom and color for the mid-atlantic area from PA down to the Carolinas and eastern Tennessee.
numerouse routes from a central point in each region are detailed and the local dining, lodging, and other points of interest are detailed in an interesting style of writing.
useful for anyone who wants to tour the mid-atlantic region and take their time doing it...

A "Must" for anyone traveling the Appalachians Jul 02, 2007
By B. Burns
I just finished a ride of a little over 1000 miles from my home in NJ to and through WV and VA. I used this book to guide me on some really terrific roads and through some truly beautiful areas. This was the first long, extended ride I've ever taken and it was in large measure due to the "encouragement" expressed through this well written resource. If you're thinking of traveling through the Appalachians then I would recommend that you purchase and pour through this well written book before you go.
