- It looks like a morning ride is in order for this Friday as temperatures continue to look like summertime. I plan on riding through Highlands and then head over and around Lake Glennville before heading home. We'll make a pit stop around half way. If another non-breakfast/lunch ride sounds good to you, we'll leave the Key Mart parking area at 9 am. We should be home my noon. Hope to see you there. Steve
- We had another fine day for a ride into the mountains on this Friday morning. Joining me were Len, Dan, David D., Rob, Russ, Brian, and Bob B. (great to see him on a bike again.) We proceeded through Salem and up the mountain to the Wigington Road crossover to get on Hwy 107. It was actually on the slightly cool side, but felt great as we made it to Cashiers, NC, and turned west on Hwy 64. We stopped at a Shell Station as we entered Highlands, NC, for a quick pit stop. Rob and David D., decided to head for the Suches Loop in North Georgia (update - they didn't go that far, but had a great ride, even with pop-up mountain showers - swd 07/03/20.) After the break the rest of us passed through Highlands, driving by Bridal Falls and along the Cullasaja River to pick up Walnut Creek Road. This section of Hwy 64 is still one of my favorites that I've ever ridden. We crossed back through the mountains toward Lake Glenville and the scenic outlook from the dam. It is always a great ride on these fabulous winding mountain roads. We got back a little after noon as the temperatures were continuing to climb into the lower 90's. Overall, it was another great day on two wheels. Steve
