I like the place that ujsed to be the Big Boy place.

On the north side of Cherokee as you ride up towards the BRP. Opposite a motel and BP gas station.

Quick Google map and it's the Newfound Lodge and Restaurant.

The only reason I'd stop in Cherokee. The rest of the town is is for dumb tourists.

We would expect nothing less from Santa  ;D


T-Bird

I'm glad to see folks jumping in on this early. This ride will probably be one of the best during the whole week of Inzane. It will be a whole day of "WildBunch" twisties, ending that Saturday evening in Ashville. On Sunday we will all ride into "Ground Zero" together. There will be riders of all experience on this ride,and it won't be a race, but a good ride through some of the best motorcycling roads in America.

"If you think long...you think wrong"
Motel rooms at the Blue Ridge Motel may be sold out, but there are several motels nearby, a Holiday Inn is almost in the the same parking lot. but don't wait till the day of the ride to try and get a room somewhere nearby.....this is a high tourist area and you will be at their mercy...can you say "Ca-ching!!!

I hope to see you there :cooldude:

I figured santas farts would smell like candy cane or mistletoe ?  :2funny:

Good deal... I think I've told you I've been to Red Bluff several times over the years. A man builds LineCat in his garage there. We have ( 3 ) of them.... I'll add California to my list of folks that are going to make this beautiful ride across the mountains.

After trying to secure a venue for InZane 14, I can second that the area hotels/motels are mighty proud of their rooms.  If Joe's Saturday motel fills, the GZ hotel (Clarion Inn) will allow you to extend your reservation to include Saturday at the VRCC negotiated rate.  Of course, they will fill quickly as well.  A number of us will be at GZ Friday and Saturday.


You can't do much about the length of your life, so focus on the width.

I have booked both days, double beds. They still have rooms. Thanks for getting those good rates Joe!

I jus made my reservations. I've been putting it off because I'm not 100% sure I can go. things have to work out just right for me to make it, and I am a "say what you do, do what you say" kinda guy. I hate to make plans when I'm unsure if I can keep them.
