    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).

    I don't think that's 180...looks like they just kept going on 75 north of Helen.

    Did you pass brasstown bald?

    this pic looks like it a lil though... http://forums.importatlanta.com/atta...id=53457&stc=1

    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.

    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

    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

    ah, that's what i thought...you went around all the good roads...which at the time of the bicycle race was prolly better anyways. There's always next time, or the time after...
