This pic is outside of Helen on a short stop. Next to the R bike is a bud with his 80000 mile RT.
After a good meal and some beverages Fri. night, the next morning we took off for Brasstown Bald. It's the highest spot in GA at 4784 ft and highways 75 and 180 are great roads to ride getting there. You have a little of everything as you cruise through the Chattahoochee National Forest. The pictures are from on top the bald. You see the parking lot below because you have to hike .6 mile to get to the top. If you look close you can see a couple guys watching the bikes. After this stop we worked our way north on highways 75, 69, 64, 74, and 129 to Robbinsville, NC.
From there, we jumped on the Cherohala Skyway to Tellico Plains. It was about 46 F and a few clouds but the area had some wildfires going, so we had some smoke to go with the scenic ride as well.
Made one last stop at Tellico Plains at Tellico Motorcycle Outfitters. http://skur.net/tellico/home.html
