The road up is not for the the novice rider.

Very steep single lane, mostly first gear and hair whitening switchbacks. One bike stalled on a switchback - wrong gear. Luckily he was on a flat part in the curve. Another fell over in the lower parking lot.

Is that 76 through Hiawassee down there?



You know how to by-pass Hiawassee when you're traveling on 76, right?

You don't live at the new place yet do you?
