True, but i do get flexibility in working remotely. Most places want you in the office. The last time I was physically in the office was sometime in April.

Excellent trip and report Cam.

Burkes Garden is pretty neat, but there isn't much there. I only found 1 small general store out in the middle of the flat. The road out the East side is not motorcycle friendly.

Been on the back of the Dragon numerous times, as well as most every road around that part of the state. one of my favorite areas in the region.

I'd have to check the map where FXR4Mikey and I rode northwest of Atlanta on the way to Texas last year. Like you said, some really great roads. I also missed Little Switzerland when we left Maggie Valley the last time.

Ashville is a great town. Hendersonville, a out 25 miles south, is also a neat little town.

That was a ton of fun to read. Thanks for taking us along.
We should ride some day.
I'm in Amherst.

I didn't even get to the east side of BG. I made it to just beyond the store, stopped, looked around, and decided that it wasn't worth it to ride around the whole valley. I got the idea once I was in there and that was enough to give me an idea of what was in there.

You didn't miss anything. I rode all the way to the east side, but one look at the road where the pavement ended was all I needed to see.
