Group Ride to Lamont's BBQ from Maggie Valley

[JCSMOKE]

Just saying

I don't enjoy big group rides, I would rather have a team of 5 to 8. I can deal better without the crowds, I'll either want to leave 1/2 to 3/4 hour early or after main group. You can translate that to I'm a bad rider and don't want everyone to seepps:

Yep. It takes Rt 276 so should go by the entrance. No problem.

I nominate you as ride leader! Put your yellow RT up front and I'll bring up the rear with mine :roflblack: I couldn't remember if it was 50 or more miles. Will your route take us past the RV park?

209 is already programed into my GPS:clap:

209 looks like fun

Sounds like a plan. 209 is a fun road with some tight twisties. I would be open to an earlier start time, say 9 or so.

I sure t
like the thought of an earlier start time 9 AM maybe so we can get to lamonts and have some time to relax . I will have about a 200 mile ride after the 2 PM meal to Reidsville Looks like that will be a large day for me. :yikes:

We are up for either route as long as the leader knows the way! An earlier departure time would probably be preferable no matter which route! Looking forward to a fun day!:2thumbs::bbq:

Comfort Inn at 11:00 sounds good.

There will be a lot of people who will be going to Lamont's for the first time and I thought it would be nice for those of us who have been there before to help them find his place. In this case it isn't so much about the ride as it is the destination.


More details to follow. :bbq:

Everyone has their idea of fun.

Personally, I hope the ride leader has no idea where to go and we get lost for hours on the beautiful winding roads.

And then have bbq :bbq:

Melody and I like the 209 route leaving at 9AM option. :bbq:
