After a longer stop in Clayton to eat a quick bite, gas up, and use the restroom, we took Warwoman RD to Hwy 28 toward Highlands NC. I was relieved to feel the weather was finally warming up as forecasted but it was short lived once we climbed into the mountains.
The progress so far:
Though cool, it was a beautiful day for a ride and there was not much traffic clogging up the roads.
What little traffic we encountered we were able to safely pass and continue on with the exception of these people:
Yep, skateboarders. They were street surfing a very curvaceous section of Warwoman RD. It was fun just watching them and we hated to pass once they got off the road giving us the thumbs up sign. But we had a deadline!!

Highway 28 is a nice sweeping road that climbs into the mountains close to the NC/GA border with a magnificent view to your left when traveling North.

Just before rounding a curve, there is a sign that says something about the Savannah River plain. The views to the right are some of the most spectacular in the area. Then there's the twisty goodness.
This is some special mountain that I don't know the name of:
Continuing on US 64 through Cashiers.
After Cashiers:
We made it to halfway around 1:30 p.m. and took a brief break before soldiering on.
Time to get back on the road!!
