Well...I moved to Wake Forest from Sylva in 1979. To Raleigh in 1984.Was born/raised in Black Mountain (15 East of Asheville), spouse is from Leicester (NW Asheville). We met at Western Carolina in the early 70's. The rest is history...
Spouse doesn't ride with me (Fraidy/fraidy) Daughter does sometimes. Mostly a solo rider. I retired in 2003 @ 52. Got my 30 in and booked outta there.

Good rides in WNC:
Down highway 9 from Black Mountain to Bat Cave.
64 from Hendersonville to Franklin.
The Blue Ridge Parkway from Cherokee to Asheville.
Highway 441 from Franklin to Gatlinburg.

I like the drive down Highway 242 from Benson to Salemburg/Elizabethtown and then on to N. Myrtle Beach. Did it many times in an MG but have yet to do it on my bike.
