mnTwin Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 In! Now looking for scenic route suggestions from Indianapolis (or Cincinnati) to Helen. Link to comment
Joe Frickin' Friday Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 In! Now looking for scenic route suggestions from Indianapolis (or Cincinnati) to Helen. Easy. Take the fastest route to Tellico Plains, TN, and then from there things get fun. If you have time to kill, then from Tellico Plains you might take a detour to the east up the Cherohala Skyway. There was a slide recently, and the prediction is that it may not be fully open before HelenBack - but you might find that parts of the skyway are open, so maybe you could do an out-and-back thing from Tellico Plains. From Tellico, your route looks like this. Or at least mine does. I guess I wouldn't regard this route as "scenic," in that there aren't a lot of grand vistas worthy of a panoramic camera - but it makes for great riding. Hope you like twisties. Link to comment
Lone_RT_rider Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 From Tellico, your route looks like this. Or at least mine does. Oh man, your going to ride that section of 68 without me? ...... Link to comment
Bernie Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 From Tellico, your route looks like this. Or at least mine does. Oh man, your going to ride that section of 68 without me? ...... Maybe we should meet Mitch for lunch in Telico Plains. Link to comment
Joe Frickin' Friday Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Oh man, your going to ride that section of 68 without me? ...... It's actually the route my GPS told me to take into Helen last spring, so yeah. But it doesn't mean we can't do it three days in a row after I get there. (I'll hit it again on Sunday morning, too...) Maybe we should meet Mitch for lunch in Telico Plains. Maybe for afternoon tea, but not unless you've already had first breakfast, second breakfast, elevenses, and luncheon. I'll be leaving Ann Arbor at 7:30 AM, so I won't hit Tellico Plains until maybe 4 in the afternoon. I'll be in Helen in time for dinner, though. (Shawn sez "yeah, whatever...") Link to comment
Richard_D Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 Mitch , you can take 68 to 60 to 180 to the Richard Russell for a change. Link to comment
mnTwin Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 Thanks Mitch, that looks great! You're the man! (Or, maybe your GPS is the man!) Too many squiggly lines to choose from on the map. Link to comment

tallman Posted February 20, 2013 Share Posted February 20, 2013 Choose carefully. Mitch only buys on days that don't end in why. Link to comment

Kinsley Posted March 7, 2013 Author Share Posted March 7, 2013 An update: The hotel will be releasing some of the rooms they have on hold for our group in the next few days, so if you have not made a reservation you might want to do that. That is not to say rooms will not be available closer to the event at our rates, but they will not be held for us. Also, the Cherohala Skyway IS open and will remain so. It's down to one lane in an area that has to have road repairs. I'll be building routes, which will be much like last year's routes with some possible minor changes. Ken Link to comment
