Hey Steve!Great to see you again Shane!
Wish we had more time to catch up! I ended up having an emergency appendectomy on Sat and spent 5 days in hospital in Sylvan NC lol...
Not even a cool story to go with it...Safe at home now but still cant ride for another couple weeks...
Blue Cross is as good as anything else. Bring some US cash, some of the hole in the wall eating spots are cash only, credit card is fine for most stuff. US credit card terminals often ask for a zip code...strip the letters out of your postal code (thus leaving 3 numerals), enter those 3 numerals followed by 00.
Before having this Visa, I used to purchase travel insurance from TD. I can't recall exactly how much it was, but it was around $20-$30 for a two week trip of full coverage. If I should crash on a mountain road and need to get a helicopter ride out or need to stay in a hospital for a period of time, spending this little amount of cash would cover all these costs up to around $2million or so. Or maybe I get sick and need to have an emergency appendectomy or something! Well worth it!Ah ok thanks, I don't have that Visa card and just got a new Job so my benefits for Insurance haven't kicked in yet. Visa card will come in Handy for sure. Are there any toll routes, if so how do you go about it with the bike, stop, take gloves off, keep change around?

I know lots of folks have been down to Deals Gap before, but like all good long rides - here's a ride report.
Thanks. I totally forgot about this trip and it was nice to read it again and go down memory lane. I told my wife I was going to go somewhere for a bike trip this summer and she told me to just go to Deals Gap! I miss riding down there and hope to get back this coming summer. Safe riding!I'm way late to this thread but just had a chance to read through it and have to say that I'm seriously impressed by the roads you know Shane.
