The Rattler
The Rattler has been enjoyed by local and visiting motorcyclists who want to go on a challenging and fun-filled ride. The standard trip begins at a local US post office and ends in Hot Springs. However, if you want to extend your ride, feel free to find your way to NC 63 and complete an entire loop. Along the way, you’ll see nooks and crannies of farmland and field and take in panoramic views atop mountains. The early morning is cloaked in a deep fog, providing atmosphere and relaxation before you hit the road again.
