I suspect you were riding in Tsali in Bryon City.......some of the best trail riding around.
Cheeseflavor......strawberry pie is a seasonal delight. You can serve it warm or cold and it's sensational.
NOS-I've ridden in a lot of areas and the Blue Ridge Mountains in Western NC are hard to beat. Great climbing, terrific views, roads not too busy and the weather usually pretty agreeable. Land prices are continuing to climb as people are continuing to buy summer property there.
Will-I'm sure there are other areas that are very nice, like Raket's country in upper NY and northern California, Oregon and Washington but I'd agree that the mountains of NC are terrific for riding. Heck, Lance even mentions how much he enjoyed riding around Boone in his books......
