Dual Sport ADV Motorcycle Ride in North Carolina Mountains

Dual Sport ADV Motorcycle Ride in North Carolina Mountains

It was beautiful, cool, foggy September morning in 2015 when myself (Brock Bumgarner) and friends Bobby Keller and Christian Estes set out on an all day dual sport - adventure motorcycle ride in the beautiful North Carolina mountains.

The video starts in Collettsville, NC on Adako Rd and we soon turn onto the historic Wilson Creek Gorge area on Brown Mountain Beach Road. We stop for a brief stay at Christian's creek side cabin for a break before hopping back onto our motos to continue onward past the well known Betsy's Ole Country Store on the corner of Brown Mt Beach Rd and NC HWY 90.

We continued north on HWY 90 until we made a left on the famous Roseboro Rd. which runs from the historic Edgemont community all the way to the Blue Ridge Parkway (a beautiful road to ride if you've never done so.)

After Roseboro, you'll have a small bit of Parkway driving until we turn off on Hwy 221 near Blowing Rock, NC to make our way down Shulls Mill road to visit and hike the stunning Hebron Rock Colony (no video of the rocks unfortunately.)

Lastly, after filling our bellies at the tasty Woodlands BBQ in Blowing Rock we continued out journey down the old Globe road. Globe Rd. is an extremely scenic road which runs all the way down through the gorge to Anthony Creek Rd which will dump you back onto Hwy 90.

All in all we completed about 150 mile loop and a 3 mile hike this day...I'll never forget the sights and memories made that day (or any other day on a motorcycle for that matter!)

Enjoy the footage...One day soon I hope to get better at creating more captivating videos with music, etc for your enjoyment.
