Kayaking the French Broad through town

So I haven't put anything in for a while, and I have been able to get out the past couple of months. If you are limited for time, a fun short term commitment is kayaking on the French Broad through town. You can put in just past the NC Arboretum on Hwy 191/Brevard Road and take out at the West Asheville transfer station. You should factor about 2.5 hours after dropping cars, etc. This section is great because you get an insider's view of the Biltmore Estate. Happy paddling!
