First time riding gravel service roads in Western North Carolina

First time riding the Western North Carolina mountain service roads. I had never been on gravel roads or any major incline prior to this trip. A lot of the footage is sped up to still show the beautiful terrain, but make it less boring as I am riding very slowly through most of the sections. This footage was from a trip my Dad and I did to ride the Tail of the Dragon and other local roads for a week.
