Sunday Morning Motorcycle Ride

Article by Mark Trotta

North Carolina has many enjoyable roads for motorcycle riders, and for me, living in the middle of the state, have many directions and destinations to choose from!

The west may have the mountains and the east may have the shoreline, but central NC has it's own special places.

Devils Racetrack Road - Four Oaks, NC

This is a well-known and fabled road; long stretches of straights broken up by several sharp curves.

During the Civil War, this route was taken by General Sherman and his troops on their march from Goldsboro to Raleigh.

Wilson County, NC

Buckhorn Lake is a man-made reservoir which covers an area of 2,100 acres.

Buckhorn Lake, Sims NC

The scenery is beautiful 12 months a year.

Most of my Sunday rides aren't about a destination. It's more about deciding on a direction.

Wayne County, NC

F-86 Sabre jet, Seymour Johnson Air Force Base, Goldsboro NC

Johnston County, NC

Stancil Oil Country Store - Selma, NC

Extended Vision Cupola Caboose 1971 - Selma, NC

A quiet country road in Wilson's Mills, NC

Building Mural - Smithfield, NC

Enjoying hot coffee at an outdoor cafe.

Main Street - Clayton, NC

And that's it until next Sunday!
