Hi road riders. I'm looking for anyone who would like to ride the back roads of the blue ridge mts around Boone, NC.
I'm doing a couple hundred miles a week, ride a carbon Trek and would love some company.

Have you thought about riding next to long distance truckers? Couple hundred miles a week in the Blue Ridge Mountains? I don't even want to thing about that. But then, all I know of the Blue Ridge Mountains is in a John Denver song.

Welcome.

Hi and I'm envious as all get out. I'll trade you your blue ridge mountains for my ocean but just for a little while. :D

There are no shortages of climbs and lonesome country roads for sure, but I bet riding at the shore has its share of wonderful moments.

Welcome to BikeForums Jimmy.

I have lots of fond memories of Blowing Rock and Boone. Would love to live there!

I live about 25 miles north of Boone and ride to Blowing Rock often. The Blue Ridge Parkway viaduct to Grandfather mountain is a favorite.
cheers....keep riding,
Jimmy
