“And the Ride Continues...”

A bit off the BRP route but worth every locals while:

The Snake

"The Snake" is a 33-mile motorcycle ride on US 421 in North Carolina and Tennessee that's known for its 489 curves, three mountains, and one valley. The ride starts 25 miles north of Boone, NC, and crosses the state line into Mountain City, TN, where it continues through Cherokee National Forest, Shady Valley, TN, and Holston Valley, TN. Some say the ride can be dangerous in the winter and desolate at night, and recommend having enough gas for the trip.

Here's a full and detailed list of great places to eat along the way. The blue “thumbs up” dots state our top recommendation(s).

PS: since we don’t know when you’re feeling peckish, we have included an “along the way list” - pick your poison…
