I started my riding life in Wilmington (read=flat). Now I
live in Raleigh (read=rolling hills) and love the hills.
This summer I want to ride some mountains. What are some
good ones to start on and what are some of the more
difficult ascents? Also, I have a wife and two kids so not
having to drive far is a big bonus.
TIA

I understand Asheville has a pretty large cycling community.

I thought that they were petite and drop-dead knockouts! No

(if that means obese).

cyclists in Asheville.
