I just moved to Hickory,NC from the Chicago area and looking to meet folks to ride with and to show me the lay of the land.
If anyone in the area is willing to show this middle aged transplant what the area has to offer let me know.

Welcome! From Hickory, point your motorcycle West. That's about it.
Seriously, you moved to a fantastic place to ride a motorcycle.

As eljefe-speaks, just go west. East of you looks just like Chicago.

Welcome to the Tar Heel State! I am a recent transplant myself. My poor bikes are still back "home" with my wife. They're moving down in two weeks!

I have taken a trip west to the Diamandback loop I think it was called. Very fun, beat the hell out of the flat Illinois roads.

If you've never ridden the Blue Ridge Parkway you can't even conceive of the treat you're in for. Head North on 321, get on the BRP and take it all the way South to the end. Prepare to grin like a maniac.
