MABDR is a scenic ride for dual-sport and adventure motorcycles that uses dirt, gravel and paved roads to wind through remote parts of Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, and Pennsylvania. Starting in Damascus Virginia, and ending in Lawrenceville, Tioga County, PA, this 1,mile route, primarily uses forest roads and rural country lanes, to lead riders through the Appalachian mountains, majestic forests, bucolic farming landscapes, Amish country, and locations that played pivotal roles in early American history.
The route is presented by American Honda Motor Corp. As you meander through Jefferson National Forest and Mount Rogers National Recreation Area be mindful that the cinder-sized gravel tends to berm up on the center and shoulders of the road. This is a prelude to the roads ahead on the route.
