Pair this with the "Same As It Ever Was" permanent and you've got yourself back-to-back 200km rides with an overnight in Asheville or Damascus. Modified from the Asheville Randonneurs classic Asheville-Damascus-Asheville 400km, this route adds some pleasant yet challenging climbs and descents. The TN Welcome Center is surprisingly well stocked with hot and cold items and 24/7/365 service. There are many lodging options in both Asheville and Damascus.
