South Carolineans benefit from a generally mild climate. Chilly winters and warm summers permit riding your motorcycle here year-round, so long as you are properly prepared. If heading out on any South Carolina motorcycle routes during the colder months, gearing up with a base layer and mid layer paired with a four-season riding jacket/pant will allow you to adapt your setup to temperature swings and stay comfortable all day long. If riding during the warmer months, pair a base layer with some summer riding gear and you’ll be good to go. Always take a look at the weather forecast before heading out on the bike, and pack some rain gear if there is any chance of rain. Be aware that the state can be hit by tropical cyclones during the hurricane season (June through November), so keep an eye out for action in the Atlantic during the weeks and days leading up to your trip!
South Carolina has plenty of variety when it comes to things you might like to see and do while in the state. Myrtle Beach is one of South Carolina’s top destinations, where you can walk, swim and enjoy by many other means the 60 miles of beautiful shoreline. Middleton Place, a historic plantation just outside of Charleston, is home to the oldest landscaped gardens in the US and is one of the top cultural destinations in South Carolina. On the coast at Charleston you will find Fort Sumter National Monument, one of the most consequential historical sites in the United States. Here you can tour the ruins of the fort that is the site of the first battle of the American Civil War and learn much about the early history of South Carolina. If you prefer more isolated outdoor recreation options, you can take a ride out to the Mountain Bridge Wilderness Area and enjoy it’s hiking trails and impressive scenery, or Oconee State Park for a day of hiking and swimming in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains.
