My son and I volunteered for the 2018 NATRC ride at Biltmore. We had a very pleasant experience and would do it again. The ride was well organized. Directions were clear on our job description and we were pampered all weekend. They fed us, brought as rain gear, and even helped us get our trailer hooked up again when the battery on our electric jack died.
