    Hi FC members. Fairly new to the Asheville area and taking delivery of an F12 this weekend or early next week. Car is shipping via transporter from California, so was thinking about taking delivery somewhere different and doing one-way back to my house in Asheville area. Overnight trip is fine. Open to any suggestions. Appreciate any suggestions.

    Happy for your purchase, and worried about the crime in Ashville...Perhaps Knoxville or up the road to Roanoke...Who knows anymore what is safe...
    Good luck and enjoy the mountain drives!

    Ship it to Atlanta to one of the exotic dealers, maybe catch a Cars and Coffee somewhere, and then head up to northern GA to Suches. https://twowheelsofsuches.com/things-to-do/rides/
    This was the base camp for many a two wheeled adventure in my dual sport m/c days.
    Then do the Cherohala Skyway, Tail of the Dragon, Foothills Parkway, and the Blue Ridge Parkway back to Asheville.

    My advice? Don't learn the kinks of an F12 on the backroads of western NC. Wait until you have some time + miles under your belt before carving through the twisties and switchbacks of the region.

    Charlotte is an option. Then you head up and over to the tail of the dragon and then take the BRP back to Ashville. One of the best drives you will ever have. You could ship it to us and we could keep it for a bit if you are coming shortly after the car arrives. Let us know

    Thought there may be a wildlife in WNC thread somewhere in here…but perhaps that’s a no joy moment.
    But here is pic proof there are still bears in the woods…like those who live in Buncombe county don’t already know…and there are coeds running about waving their Hans getting ready to go..er.. swimming. No maybe LKooning for a place to get a big dish of beef show mein…whoa,I saw a werewolf…walking with the queen…oh,no…wrong again,sorry.
    But here..any y’all got some pics?..
