Thursday, July 2nd – Spruce Pine, NC to Maggie Valley, NC

The curse continued on our second day, with more gorgeous weather and spectacular riding, covering another 100+ miles of dirt and paved back roads.

Despite daily forecasts of rain and thunderstorms, our rain gear remained packed away and unused; a welcome outcome. The trails leading through the Pisgah National Forest were superb, with each turn more beautiful than the last.

Maggie Valley was our stop for the night – a very popular tourist destination with bikers, as well as vacationers of all stripes. We were blessed to have another fine day behind us, with hopes of many more ahead!
