    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Would anyone still have the routes that were used back when the Southeast rallies out of Robbinsville were being held? I'm interested in the routes taking 28, War Woman rd etc.

Thanks.
 
I rummaged around a bit and found the following from 2007. Bear in mind many of the businesses mentioned are gone or changed, of course. And these may or may not be of any help for the routes you have in mind.

The following is not much help for your quest, but the following photo galleries from the NC rallies are a fun blast from the past:

Nowadays, I usually use gpsies.com to create routes online and then load the GPX files into my Android phone running Locus, an offline mapping app (no data connection is needed; the maps and routes are stored on the phone).

Anyway, if you have questions about the routes we used back then, I may be able to dredge up some memories.
 
I don't remember your username. Who did you used to be? ;)
 
I wasn't around the GSR back then, but I can share with you my routes that I just put together for my tentative 5 day extended twisty scenic trip from Parkersburg WV (from Columbus, OH but WV is where the fun starts) down through WV, southwest VA, Eastern TN, Western NC, and then express route to Barber Vintage Festival from the Cherohala Skyway...
I put half a day so far into plotting familiar roads that I loved in the past, with highly recommended routes, and other roads that I've stalked via satellite and Google Street View that look like decent to fantastic connectors... Primitive camping options marked out, started marking out waterfalls and other scenic stops as well...
