A friend and I are planning a trip from Greensboro NC to Myrtle Beach SC and were wondering if anyone had any information or tips. Routes to take or avoid or helpful hints. We were figuring on 200-220 miles spread out over 3 days. Any helpful hints about riding that amount would also be appreciated. Any information would be greatly appreciated.

My only recommendation would be to stay out of Randolph County. Ive ridden in quite a few counties in NC but Randolph tops them all. I was chased by dogs on 10 different occasions on a mere 58 mile ride in and around Asheboro. Perhaps coincidental but I have never been chased by that many dogs on any ride previously or since.
