Road or mountain, we will be traveling there and wonder which bikes to take. I'm pretty sure you can't bike any of the AT, but maybe there are other trails nearby? I'd consider going near Asheville, although we will be staying in Waynesville.

While I am not from NC, I think if I were going to be that close to the Blue Ridge Parkway, I would absolutely make a point of biking a segment or two of it. I've ridden all 469 miles of the BRP on my motorcycle, twice....have never done it on a bicycle...but it's on my "bucket list" of things to do before I drop dead.

Lots of riding from Waynesville
My best friend is a road cyclist and lives in Waynesville and I live about 45 min away - there is LOTS of GREAT road riding in the Waynesville area - you can go to Asheville if you want as well - but there is no lack of riding it the area you will be in. We have ridden from her house a lot. There are even marks down for the Blue Ridge Breakaway that ran for the first time this year. PM me for more info.
