This is so tempting. I need to be in Johnson City, TN (about 90 miles north of Ashville, NC) for work from August 5th through the 16th. I have always wanted to ride my bike or Boxster down to this area of the country. I usually fly and rent a car when traveling outside the Northeast for work. But I could leave a few days early and then I do have the weekend of Aug 10th & 11th off. I also wrap up on Friday the 16th and do not need to be home until Sunday night the 18th, so it is so tempting to take the Boxster.

Looks like my route would be similar to Black Box's, only I would not be heading west once in TN.

Black Box, did you go through Johnson City?

What routes did you take as an alternative to 81 from Harrisburg PA?

I think I will get my car in for a pre-trip inspection on Monday.

If you will be in Western NC at that time you could go to the In Den Bergen in Waynesville NC. Great event. should be over 80 cars this year.

I'll be there.
