This past week I took my first long bike trip. Me and my buddy left on Monday (8/1) and arrived at deals gap the next day. We left Friday (8/5) and made it home the next day. Total mileage was 1845 miles. I only took pictures while in Tennesee/N. Carolina. Pictures of Illinois and Indianna would only bore you.
Day 1
The first day we left around 10:00am and made it to Nashville at around 6:30. 481 miles the first day.
Here we are pumping gas gettin ready to get on the highway.
Once we arrived in Nashville we stopped for food right away and then found a campground.
Day 2
The next day we checked out the Opry hotel in Nashville.
This place was huge!
After the Opry we stopped at Bass Pro to get a few extra bunjee's and small packable pillows. Back on the road. We left Nashville around 9:30 and got to Deals Gap by 1. 210 miles.
Here is a picture from the Cherohala Skyway convenience store.
We rode the dragon right away, and let me say, it is freakin awesome! No roads near me come close to that. After we stopped at the convenience store for gas and info on good camp grounds, we headed out to explore the best campsite. We found one that was perfect.
Here are a few pictures of the view from the campsite we stayed at the first 2 nights. Nothing like waking up to this view!
The water was perfect temperature and we enjoyed a few beers before going to sleep.
