I live 20 miles from the mid-way point of the Blue Ridge Parkway and have spent most of my life roaming the Blue Ridge Mountains. In 1995 I hiked the Appalachian Trail and soon learned how much I loved these small mountain towns.
My rides will be about the downtown area of small mountain town of the Blue Ridge Mountains, and the back roads that lead to them

Highlights, Part 7
Highlights from earlier videos of my rides through Blue Ridge Mountain towns. Some have been small, and some have been large. Some are old towns with a lone and rich history, and some are young towns with a young history, and some are not towns, but communities. Whatever the case they are places where people are born and raised and that’s what makes a town, city, or community special.

Very small town , not much to do , people are friendly there , the court house he did not show is were the towns people have there events .Every Friday the shop owners closed there stores after work and the towns people will enjoy some good ole music . I love geographics of this town as it is only 20 minutes to Blairsville Ga , and 32 minutes from Murphy NC as Murphy is the last city West of NC and your closed to Tenn essee as you will be from Murphy NC 20 minutes from Duck town Tennessee . We have not decided were to move to either Hayesville or Murphy , as there is more to do in that town .
