i recognize blueridge and the boring side of 180 from 17/75 back to 129... and i think one pic is from 17/75 just north of helen (the one going into the blind right hander with the red hatch in front).

lol, and to think i actually know that stuff by sight even though i'm usually whipping through there on the bike ;). that section of 180 is insane on a sportbike since it's so open and all of the turns are big sweepers. and 17/75 north of helen is one of my favorites, at least when you catch a break from the usual traffic.

Did you pass brasstown bald?

this pic looks like it a lil though... http://forums.importatlanta.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=53457&stc=1

oh yeah i'm sure we missed some, but at the same time we ended up stumbling upon some that were very pleasant surprises to us as well :D

and we just kept goin up 400 and eventually took a right somewhere, went through cleveland and yeah well yeah, basically i just followed the signs :tongue:
