I am looking for a ride to Banner Elk from the Charlotte area for me and my bike…will pay top dollar, and/or buy beer/soda, and/or lunch/dinner, or beer for the week, or do your laundry, or pull at the front of the paceline, whatever it takes…
Please reply if you are driving from anywhere close to the Charlotte area and have room—we can negotiate the terms then!
Have you checked the "see who's riding" list? It has the city as well as the name of who is registered. You might find someone coming from your area that way.
