Default Wheels Though Time Museum

Looking for something to do today because of all the rain and decided to take the cager over to Maggie Valley and go to the Wheels Through Time museum. It was absolutely fantastic. Very informative and a total pleasure. Loved the Croaker burnout Dale just loves to do.

Everyone I met that works there was very passionate nad friendly about sharing information on all the bikes there. Dale, Matt, and Bob were awesome. I just cant say enough good things about the place. Was hard to believe all the bikes there run, it was so cool to have them start up anything I wanted to hear run. They even let me sit on a 42 Indian 4 cylinder!

If you are near Maggie Valley, NC and have never been, I highly recommend the place, definately worth the $12 admission fee.

ive been a couple of times. i could spend all day in there. it is simply amazing. not just the bikes but all of the bike related items he has is hard to describe. i love the bikes that have been kept in their original condition the most. if youve never been, you must do so.

I'm heading down to the Dragon in 10 days, and this is on my list of must-sees, thanks for confirming what I've already heard, I'm looking forward to seeing it myself.

They were at one time and even shut the doors but Dale and the town worked things out I guess. I for one am glad he didn't leave I go there every time I am in Maggie Valley and that is at least twice a year if not more.

Great place. We had 22 shovels there in April and did the Dragon and we are going back in Sept but this time will do the Cherohala Parkway.

+1 on this- went by there today myself. Every Harley rider should visit, as much of the HD heritage is captured there... Love MV and riding through the mountains. Also a quick shout out to Smoky Falls Lodge...
