Aunt Bea's Way (US 52) - By Guest

I agree that Pilot Mountain and Mount Airy are great destinations on a bike. I would (and do) avoid highway 52 at all costs between Winston-Salem and Mount Airy. The pavement is severely damaged. Too many tractor trailors and most importantly, just not a very nice ride. There are some fine two lane and county roads that will get you to Pilot Mountain, Mount Airy and the beautiful part of 52 past Mount Airy.
