I know a lot of you are from NC East TN. My good friend lives in Cosby. I am visiting her on Thursday night and through the weekend. She works on Friday and I am going to go riding through the area. She will probably only work a half day but I would like a quick ride through some nice back roads. Any suggestions. |

OMG if you are going to be in Cosby and have to ask.....obviously you have never been there! That is the heart of all things Buell. Do NOT miss riding up 32 and back. Hit 321 either direction, I recommend you come in that way from Maryville on your initial route. If you hit 209 to Hot Springs it is awesome, just watch for gravel on the center of the inside(mountain side) lane. From Cosby make any loop you see on a map, just stay off the slab, you won't be disappointed. |

Wayah Road Otter Creek Rd/Tellico Rd West of Cosby: Round Mountain Rd./107 209/63 Pisgah Hwy/276 from 280 to BRP to south on 215 to Charles Creek/Explorer Rd. 281 Canada Rd. BRP if you like going slow. Have fun! |

I have been then but just a weekend visit guy right now. Thinking about moving up there if I can find a job that way that will make it worth it. I live in Montgomery and come up through Atlanta to hit 23/411/74 I40 up. Since I am riding up late I don't like to venture off the slab for getting there quicker but since I have all Friday to ride just wondering what is best for a nice loop. Normally cage up this is the first ride with the Uly. Thanks for the suggestions. I have been in pigeon forge area with cage. I know my friend could give a good route as she has a bike too but gonna be hard to get her out since she lost her fiance last july to a motorcycle accident. |

Want to learn more of the roads so I can get around and learn the area. I may be looking for new location for life and I love the area where she is and just need to be able to make a living there. But I will be around the area more with the Uly so I am sure I can explore all the good ones. |
