Last week a friend and I hung out in western North Carolina (Bryson City) and we took our MTBs and road bikes with us. We read in a book about road riding in that area that the "Road To Nowhere" was a good ride because of lack of traffic and also the scenery. WHEW!!!! Both of us rode most of the way in our granny gear. Half of the ride is up hill and the other half is very steep, winding downhill. It was a very challenging workout, but so worth it! I'm proud to say that I made it up each incline - never stopping to walk the bike up. I think it's the most challenging riding I've done yet, just because of how steep and how constant the uphill riding was. Plus, us Michiganders aren't use to that mountain air!
Anyone else ride this road? I can't wait to go back and try some even larger uphills!!!
