some more fun roads in the mt Airy area.... take NC-89 east to NC-8 south , turn west at Hanging Rock State Park road (becomes Moore Springs Rd) to stop sign then north on NC-66....
or? head north on NC-8 (becomes VA-8) through Stuart then CLIMB up to the BRP on 8
That whole Mt Airy is a fine area to ride... THEN there's the west side of 52

We went all over all the areas you described plus some back roads I never been on. Those roads you just described are fine riding. I wish I could remember the road with the 2U shaped hard curve that really surprised me at their sharpness. Those were the two best curves on the trip. Those were the ones I had to slam down into 1st from 3rd to negotiate the curve and keep enough rpms to go up the steep grade with 2 up riding.
