About 30 miles before you get to Asheville, NC on the BRP, exit on Highway 80 toward Marion, NC. It is also a nice little town to stay and lots of motels and restaurants. The ride on US 80 is the best kept secret in the Smokey Mountains and I have never seen it crowded and it is a lot more fun than the Dragon. Trust me on this one.
I,ll second that, I think US 80 is called the Devils Whip? Fantastic, Rode it last year and it was cooler up on the Parkway. These bikes were made for that riding, enjoy.
