Default 3/23 Mountain Cruise with SVT Cobra Mustang Club

Copied from the SVT Cobra Mustang Club Forum
"Snakes vs the Snake Mountain cruise- March 23, 2013 -- NC/TN/VA

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Who is up for 489 curves in 33 miles, 3 mountains, and 1 valley cruise? The cruise will be on March 23, 2013. The cruise will start in Hickory, NC go to Bristol TN/VA and back to I40 via Hwy 58. If you would like to come and be a part of the pack, post here."


The cruise starts and ends in Hickory. This will be a long cruise but some great NC mountain roads. I think we are going to try to make it, anyone want to join the fun?

Meeting location -
Arby's
1470 U.S. 321
Hickory, NC

Departure Time - 9:30 AM.

Arby's doesn't open until 10:00 AM on Saturday. Get breakfast, gas and a bio break before you arrive.

This will depend on weapons testing. Right now it's scheduled for the 23rd, but might be changed.

Yeah, kinda interesting it is. For the travelers from the east, at least it gets you headed in the home direction.

I was mistaken, Robbie's route starts and ends in Hickory. There would be options if you wanted to do most of the run and head back towards 77 through Sparta. Here is a link to the map and the turn by turn for the trip.

1. Head north on US-321 N
2. Turn left onto N Carolina 105 S
3. Turn right onto State Rd 1107
4. Turn left onto N Carolina 194 S/US-321 N/US-421 N Continue to follow US-421N entering Tennessee
5. Sharp right onto TN-44 N
6. Continue onto VA-75 N/Green Spring Rd/Hickory Tree RdContinue to follow VA-75N/Green Spring Rd entering Virginia
7. Turn right onto Co Rd 677/Watauga Rd
8. Turn right onto US-58 E/Jeb Stuart Hwy
9. Slight left onto Co Rd 878/W Laurel Ave
10. Turn right onto US-58 E/VA-91 S/Douglas Dr
11. Slight left onto US-58 E/Jeb Stuart Hwy
12. Turn right to stay on US-58 E/Jeb Stuart Hwy
13. Turn left onto US-58 E/Highlands Pkwy Continue to follow US-58 E
14. Turn right onto US-58 E/VA-16 S/ Troutville Hwy
15. Turn right onto VA-16 S/Jefferson Hwy Entering North Carolina
16. Continue onto N Carolina 16 S
17. Turn right onto N Carolina 88 W/US-221 S Continue to follow US-221 S
18. Turn right onto US-221 S/US-421 N Continue to follow US-421 N
19. Turn left onto N Carolina 105 S/US-221 S
20. Turn left onto US-321 S/Blowing Rock Rd Continue to follow US-321 S
Return to Hickory on HWY 321

I'm pretty sure Jenn would choke me if I rolled out for this now that we are closing on the house on the 27th. LOL.
