I'm in Hendersonville, NC, just south of Asheville. I don't have as many free weekends to ride as I would like. There is small group of us, 4 or 5, that try to take a few trips a year. So far we have been to Tellico 3 times, Brown Mountain twice, Windrock and Hatfield/McCoy both once. We are trying to plan a small trip back to Windrock soon.
I am pretty familiar with the SC red caly. Clemson Class of '95. While I was there we used to spend some time in the mud around Lake Hartwell. Slick and nasty stuff. Takes forever to clean a truck after a hard day in that stuff.
