Sounds good, will be in Asheville checking out my cousins new home and checking the area out for possibly a future move. We go to the dealership on Sunday. You see 3 bikes with Jersey tags riding around, it's us.....

If you're looking for some fun roads to ride in the area, try Hwy 215 out of Rosman up towards the Parkway. Turn right onto the Parkway, and have some lunch at Pisgah Inn, then come down Hwy 276 to Brevard. Get some ice cream at the place at the intersection of Hwy 276, Hwy 280, and Hwy 64 (Can't remember the name right now, but it's worth it!). Hwy 276 will have a lot of traffic near the Sliding Rock park.

Hope this helps,

That H-D dealership has closed. There is an indy there now called "Smoky Mountain Steel Horses". Here's a link to their website...

Or, get on the Blue Ridge Parkway and run south to Cherokee. That's a spectacular road. Another nice road out of Asheville is to take 74-A south down to Chimney Rock.
