  1. Hi All.
    I could sure use some help. We just relocated to western North Carolina. I
    havn't riden a bike in around twenty years. I'm slighty over 50 and need the
    exercise. I hear WNC is a great place to ride.I would expect the vast
    majority of my riding will be on road but I'd like a bike I can go off-road
    with. My dollar limit is about $750.00. The local shops I've been to all
    seem very competant and very knowledgable,but I'm just confused. Thanks for
    any input.

  2. Welcome to NC. Here are some places to go.
    General info: http://www.mtbikewnc.com
    Pisgah: http://ncnatural.com/NCUSFS/Pisgah
    Dupont: http://www.mtbikewnc.com/trailheads/dupont.html
    Tsali: http://www.main.nc.us/graham/hiking/tsali.html

    I've ridden Pisgah, Dupont and Tsali. Tsali is the least
    technical but just as much fun.

  3. Listen to Zilla he is a Tar Heel from near the Capital of the state
    you now have settled in. He ride more then most of the crew but not
    as much as me I'm on a bike every day road / dirt and OVER THE HILL 50
    by 2.

  4. Actually I'd rather NOT be called a "Tar Heel" since I'm
    a "Wolfpacker". 🙂
