WEEKEND ACTIVITIES:
Thursday, June 23---arrive and check into motels or campgrounds
- Bazooka and Nana can be found at the Four Seasons Inn. Expect a lot of meet and greet going on in the parking lot, the meeting room there and next door at the Ramada through the afternoon and evening. There is also a lovely green area behind the motel beside the creek where we are welcome to gather.
- Spiritdream will have your name tags ready for you at the Four Seasons Inn
- Please park efficiently, as several members must trailer in and need space for parking cages and trailers too.
- Meal options: We’re all on our own! Several great eating spots are nearby including Legends Bar (within walking distance), J Arthurs, and others. See this link for more suggestions: Maggie Valley Restaurants and Dining
Friday, June 24---Day of riding and exploring
- There will be a list of suggested activities posted at both motels for an easy day trip to join a group or go-on-your-own
- There will be suggested options and maps for rides to go-on-your-own or join one of the organized, led group rides skuuter is putting together. These will include a scheduled stop at one of skuut’s favorite feeding troughs! Note that specific time and route will be posted each day at both hotels, or contact skuuter if you have a question. The organized group rides will be planned and led in a manner to accommodate even newbies to trike riding and twisty roads.
- Note to those who are new to the area..... There is not a bad ride in the area so long as you stay on paved roads. Expect lots of twisties and spectacular scenery. An entrance to the famous Blue Ridge Parkway is just a couple of miles out of town .
- Meal options: Again, we’re on our own! Pick another great option from the list in the link above and invite a table full of new friends to ride down for a bite and some refreshment!
- In the evening -- after the riding is over for the day -- Boscoporp (aka Stan) is inviting everyone to come by the Four Seasons Inn where he will be hosting a Margarita Party with his Margarita maker and a big pile of ice in his room!
