Before we took a ride along the Toccoa with our Mountain bikes today - the first me and the spouse (we are in our 50s) have had a ride since Spring, we had a flat fixed in Blue Ridge by Sam at Cycle South. If you like Mountain Biking, his new shop near the train tracks in Blue Ridge is pretty amazing. And by the way, we are proud to say, us 50ish year old bikers conquered some big hills first day out...|AskaGuide|2009-10-20
The Fireflies are more than here and there this cool Spring evening in the North Georgia Mountains. That is a good sign. Fireflies are an indicator species. They don't live in polluted places.|AskaGuide|2009-5-14

A friend of mine asked a question well worth a post: "I have heard/read that parking off of 515 where the BMT crosses is not permitted. Is that really true? how close can you get away with parking?" - Parking along the BMT on Rock Creek Road off 515 is permitted in several places, in the Rich Mountain Wilderness Area.|AskaGuide|2007-3-21
H. Hermantz - your suggestion is duely noted.|AskaGuide|2007-2-5
I thought this was a MOTORBIKE blog for discussion on cool places to ride in the Southern Apps. I have a Harley. Webmaster needs to get on a blog or wiki for us!|HarleyHermantz|2007-2-4
Wow, that is a nice one, under a $100 - at $7 a bucket it will pay for itself in about 14 sessions!|Wawawa|2007-1-7
Golf anyone? I suppose a round of golf can classify as a nice walk or hike. After spending $7 per bucket of range balls I decided to get the net. Izzo Golf: Big Mouth Instant Range Net

I have camped out in North Georgia too, and brought our bikes along. The star gazing can be pretty dramatic compared to the smoggy skies of Atlanta. For some good tips, you need to check out: Jack Horkheimer's Star Gazer Episodes online.|PhotoNature|2006-10-31
Me and my girlfriend camped out off the Toccoa River near the canoe launch, and took a night bike ride (we had lights for our bikes - got them at Amazon.com, just search for "bike light"), I have never seen so many stars, and even saw the band of thick stars that form the edge of our Milky Way galaxy! What a weekend!|MojoWorkin|2006-10-31
