US Hwy. 129 over Blood Mountain, Ga.

It's called the Snake and is south of it's big brother, The Dragon, on the Ga side of the mountains. The T.W.O. (Two Wheels Only) Resort In Suches, Ga. is a pleasent and inexpensive stay and right in the thick of the ride.
Last time I was there was a bike shop in Dahlonga, Ga called Toosey's Weigh Station. Good burgers and the repair shop was not above lending me a few hand tools for a quick repair.

Then we come to my old pal, riding partner, Pouch. He built a bike resort in Blairsville, just outside the Snake, but if he didn't comp me a room I couldn't afford it. Now for a bike trip, they realy do rock! He even had Born to Ride TV come out and make a video. :-)

But switching gears, I do ever so much miss the Catskill & Pocono mountains in the summer up in NY State.

Thank you for the great thread StarCMC. :-)

Thinking of buying a bike. I AM NEW TO THIS. I am 66 yo but in pretty good shape.

What would you recommend? I have about $4,000 available. I know, not much, but it's a start.

Look, I just want to cruise around in the mountains of Pennsylvania or WVA and have some fun.

I love to ride -- and I don't get to go very often. :o) It's fun hearing where other folks like to go!
