Wile riding the area I noticed that most the roads were in the open valley, and there were hills on both sides - it looked like there should be some good roads if you had the time to find them.
On the KSL trip last month, MMRanch, Stewmills and I ended up in North Georgia when we were trying to dodge the Saturday afternoon rain. We were on a very twisty portion of 129 and beginning our trip back to the KSL, and we stopped at a historic site and talked to a young fellow who was driving a hopped up Miata and was with a group of Rice Rockets. He told us the 129, Wolf Pen Gap, 60 route was his favorite loop, and he lives in the area and has explored them all. I do believe it is worth looking into.....it may not be enough to satisfy us for a long stay - but might be worth a long day trip.
The weather forecast for this weekend is the typical weather pattern for this time of year. The fog burns off early, the weather is nice until the afternoon clouds build, and spotty showers begin to develop. The rain amounts forecast for each day are between 0.04 - 0.08 inches....definitely not a rain out. My friend who has been riding in the area for year says they get out early and ride, and then come back to the campground to relax as the showers build.....then when the storms settle down in the evening they go back out and find a place to eat and listen to some music. Seems like a good plan.....except I have a hard time being so close to the nice mountains roads and not riding in the afternoon! (I am sure my wife will vote for a bit less riding time on this trip).
