The stage to Brasstown Bald Mountain is one of the coolest hilltop finishes I have ever done, anywhere. -Bobby Julich, April 2005

If you’ve never visited a Tour de France stage in person this (Brasstown Bald) is closest thing the United States has to offer. Also know that the climb before name Hogpen Gap is no laugher. - Ted Arnold, March 2005
