Route 16 - Charlotte to Wilkesboro - By Guest

This route is nothing but typical 2 lane town to town w/ a lot of traffic until you get north of Taylorsville...Save your time and take I-77 north to I-40 west to exit 148, hwy 64 west to Taylorsville. Then get on 16 north...You will then cross the Brushy Mtns. through the apple orchards...Continuing on north of N. Wilkesboro is when the ride really gets good...16 continues to Virginia and right near the state line is Shatley Springs...This stop is a must if you like really good country cookin' (Just like momma's).
