Five riders. One guide.
The Southern Appalachians.
Small-group guided motorcycle tours out of Asheville, North Carolina.
Never more than five guests, so nobody rides at the back of a coach tour. Lodging is booked and paid for before you arrive. Bring your bike, or ride one of mine.

Two days through the high country north of Asheville, with a night in Blowing Rock. The short introduction to these mountains.

Next departures
Riding to the US from Europe?
Most of my guests fly in and rent from me — you can't bring a bike across the Atlantic, and I'd rather you didn't try.
- Six rental bikes, from a low-seat Royal Enfield up to a BMW F850GS. Tell me your height when you book and I'll match you to something you can flat-foot.
- Prices are in US dollars. You'll see an approximate figure in euros or pounds before you pay.
- Bring your home licence and an International Driving Permit.
- Renters leave a refundable $2,000 hold on a credit card at handover. It is a hold, not a charge — full details before you pay.
