oldschoolsdime92 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 The deals gap thread has gotten huge, so I thought we could start a thread of routes, and places to eat and must see things in the deals gap area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bad324 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I will be touristing the shit out of 28. Probably gonna do a Georgia breakfast run on Saturday morning.And this is why we're awesomeAll I care about doing is 28 and cherehola skyway. 129 isnt bad. There's a decent route up to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Blue ridge parkway I've learned that you can just grab a map and go and you'll probably be on a pretty damn good road Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

82packer Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) If your near Tellico Plains (west end of Cherohala Skyway) check out Walt's BBQ. On 68 south of town a mile. I really like their BBQ's and service. http://www.lodgeattellico.com/restaurant.htmIf in Robbinsville Carolina Kitchen is really goodhttp://www.urbanspoon.com/r/230/1528884/restaurant/North-Carolina/Carolina-Kitchen-Robbinsville Edited May 23, 2012 by 82packer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82packer Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 I also always stop by the Ocoee whitewater visitors center. Picnic area in the shade. Cool if water isn't running and a must see when water is released http://www.fs.usda.gov/wps/portal/fsinternet/!ut/p/c5/04_SB8K8xLLM9MSSzPy8xBz9CP0os3gDfxMDT8MwRydLA1cj72BTJw8jAwgAykeaxcN4jhYG_h4eYX5hPgYwefy6w0H24dcPNgEHcDTQ9_PIz03VL8iNMMgycVQEAHcGOlk!/dl3/d3/L2dJQSEvUUt3QS9ZQnZ3LzZfME80MEkxVkFCOTBFMktTNUJIMjAwMDAwMDA!/?ss=110804&navtype=BROWSEBYSUBJECT&cid=FSE_003741&navid=110000000000000&pnavid=null&position=BROWSEBYSUBJECT&recid=35096&ttype=recarea&name=Ocoee%20Whitewater%20Center&pname=Cherokee%20National%20Forest%20-%20Ocoee%20Whitewater%20Center Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dustinsn3485 Posted May 23, 2012 Report Share Posted May 23, 2012 (edited) I hate to inform ya'll, but Krambonz bbq in Tellico Plains is actually the best in the area..I plan to head over early Sat morning and stay thru Sunday afternoon sometime. I doubt I'll ride much more than 28, the Cherohala, and deals gap. However if you have enough time for a big day trip go down and travel around Blood Mountain in GA. While you're down there take a ride through Helen, GA too. Pretty cool little city. I've not been, but I also hear that Bridal Veil Falls in Highlands, NC is a pretty cool waterfall to see as well...

Actually staying there for most of July (depends KOA is open after tornado leveled it).I just re-read my post and didn't mean to come across as a smartass. I made my comment in humor, but forgot to put much in the way of punctuation or smiley faces. Anyway, definitely look up Krambonz, it really is some good bbq.
