MyBride and I are going to spend Sunday cruising in the area and are looking for suggestions of what to see.

Anyone interested in joining us?
Sure, while we're in the neighborhood. I have no ideas what is around there. We'll have to do some research.

I am in for this weekend. Just one question is exit 52 on Interstate 85 north of where Interstate 77 and 85 meet. I am coming from the great city of Rock Hill S.C.

Thanks Michael

P.S. Are some of the roads real rough? Don't know if I should put my 16s on for the ride any suggestions?

Exit 52 is the next exit after the Concord Mills/Lowes Motor Speedway exit, which is north of the 77/85 intersection, and just slightly north of the 85/485 intersection. Look forward to seeing you!
