A favorite afternoon ride through the mountains! Less crowded than some of the other routes and more scenic. Plus some really cool stops along the way for gas and food!

A good strong road. The twisties are a bit spaced out in bursts, and there is gravel in some of these corners. There always has been every time I've been on this road, but it's not particularly dangerous as the gravel is white and the road was black. (Of course this is of no moment in car.)
Things really start to heat up, dur hur hur, as you get closer to Hot Springs, if you're going north. Give it a try, the road is aptly named.

Two highly technical sections separated by a long straightaway. Equally enjoyable running either northbound or southbound.

Rode it in the rain, so not as enjoyable, but still a scenic beautiful ride in the country.

Beautiful road. Just the right amount of twisties and sweeping turns. A store/gas stop in a good place for a break. Another shop (forget the name) had some stickers and food. Not much traffic when I was on it in mid July.

With 3 baggers doubled up and loaded to the gills, we rode this up to Canton, NC at dusk. It was definitely not a beginner route under those conditions......ditch the baggage first and then let her rip!

A beautiful ride. And very challenging in places. There is everything a rider is looking for - lovely valley views, challenging mountain climbs, technical twisties, and Hot Springs, NC, which is a very nice mountain town to visit.
