It’s an Andy Griffith–themed ride for the 2026 @CycleNC Mountain to Coast Ride.

The fall ride begins in Mount Airy (@VisitMayberryNC) — Andy’s hometown — and rolls east all the way to Manteo, where our famed native son retired and now rests.

The Andy Griffith mural in Mt Airy, North Carolina. It’s a sight to behold.

Pilot Mountain, located in North Carolina, is a striking natural landmark known for its distinctive, knob-like peak that rises dramatically above the surrounding landscape. Part of the ancient Sauratown Mountain range, Pilot Mountain has long served as a guiding landmark for Native Americans and early settlers traveling through the region.

Today, it is the centerpiece of Pilot Mountain State Park, offering visitors breathtaking views, miles of hiking and bridle trails, rock climbing opportunities, and a rich diversity of plant and animal life. The mountain's iconic summit, known as Big Pinnacle, is characterized by its rugged, quartzite cliffs and forested base, creating a unique and memorable silhouette. Just a short drive from the town of Mount Airy—famous as the inspiration for the fictional Mayberry in "The Andy Griffith Show"—Pilot Mountain remains a beloved destination for nature enthusiasts, photographers, and anyone seeking a peaceful escape into North Carolina's scenic beauty.

Ceremony by: Yona FrenchHawk, who is a full-blooded Cherokee Wisdom Keeper and Ceremonialist. He was born and raised on the Qualla Indian Boundary in the Great Smoky Mountains in Cherokee, NC. This area is also known as the Eastern Band of Cherokees.
Randall Carlson shares some knowledge about the mountain, and so does J.P. McKelvey, author of the book Faces of Pilot Mountain: Intriguing Journey into the Deep Mysteries.
