The Lodge at Copperhead in Blairsville, GA is fantastic. Great lodging with everything from low $ bunks, motel style rooms to cabins that sleep 6. Great bar and excellent restaurant. Google Map of the location is here.

Bob-Bon Inn at Kanab, UT. The are changing the name sometime to the Willows. If you want a little more room get the 2 bed - rooms. If you don't mind a smaller room they do have them but they are smaller.

Robbers Roost Motel, 325 West Main Street Green River, UT 84525
(435) 564-3452. I like small old motels and though this one seems a bit rundown from the ouside it's very clean and quaint and the young couple that run it are very nice. Plus there are nice views of the giant mesas and a very good steak house in town.

We stopped at Michie Tavern for lunch in Charlottesville Virginia, It was excellent, an all you can eat buffet for $20.60 taxes included. Well worth stopping at if your in the area.

Curleys' Redwood Lodge Crescent City, California.
Across the street from the ocean but no views. Great for a bike trip. Has covered parking for all rooms, walk to restaurant. Rooms are large and the whole motel (about 30 rooms) was made from one tree!

I am not usually a big fan of chain hotels but the Holiday Inn Express in Kalispell Montana is a cut above most. Cater to bikes, clean rooms, nice gas fire pit for gathering. They provide rags, space and wash down area for bikes.

Good Eats
If you get to Hollister CA about 5 miles from Corbin is a burger joint called RUNNING ROOSTER. $ 14 Cheese Burgers. Let me tell you something, I'd pay $20 if they asked. I compare all burgers to theres. Plus their Garlic fries are insane. It's off San Felipe in the downtown area.

Kickstand lodge campground $18.00 a night plus $5. for your pillion. They are a quick hop from the tail of the dragon on the Tn/NC border. They fix a communal dinner if they have enough riders. Cost is what you can pay. The bath house provides towels and they have a few cabins if you want to stay with your camping buddies but not camp. www.kickstandlodge.com.
