I never heard of it until I drove it Sunday. I was leaving Clarksville, Va and going to Huntsville, Al. This is the route the GPS took me. I've rode The Tail of the Dragon a few times on my Can Am Spyder. I can say that this is a more challenging road.
Thank you for doing these updates…I love those mountains and hate to see the destruction but nothing ever stays the same, there’s always change. I’m a NC native living in Florida. I have very fond memories of “going up across the mountain “ as my daddy used to say to say, with him & mama stopping along the way at their favorite stops for fresh produce, etc. I look forward to your videos❤
Ever since I was a little boy I've been fascinated with road construction. I remember walking on Interstate 79 between Lost Creek West Virginia and Jane Lew when it was under construction. It was one of the first sections to be let for Interstate 79 and it is very curvy and narrow and not up to modern standards. One benefit to building interstates in West Virginia is that they can remove the coal as they dig. I now live in Phoenix Arizona but the next time I come home I'm going to drive over and check this construction out. My cousins used this road to drive from Danville to Interstate 77 to get over to Bristol Virginia.
Next will be casinos & entertainment complexes. Just like they are trying to do here in NC. Hold on to your land folks! Those "Rich Men North of Richmond" and their developer paying PACs are on the move quickly while nobody can afford to buy anything.
I agree with you I live in North Carolina to developments every everywhere cotton fields cornfield turn into house development don't sell your land let's keep North Carolina beautiful

Thank you, Kevin. Looking forward to seeing our new road,
Thanks for another awesome video update on an awesome project!
There this weekend first time in a long time and we were shocked!

That makes me happy to create something that you like.
Where's the one for November??? Love keep up with the progress with this project. Thanks!
I'm sorry I was unable to get time to create a November video. Hopefully, I can make more updates over the winter
@@hubbard1Cool!
Yeah it looks horrible while under construction but after the highway and reclamation is done it will be a beautiful ride

I hope that I can continue to create these updates for you and all road construction enthusiasts
