Nashville Baby


Besides the unbelievable time riding in the mountains, we were all ready for some down time. I took the guys downtown Nashville and showed them around. I have been here once by this time so I knew my way around pretty well. I think Adam and Josh really likes listening to all of the good country music. We all bought cowboy boots down in Nashville too.

Blue Ridge


While Adam and I were heading to my moms in TN, Josh continued to ride more from our stay in NC. He couldn't leave without riding the Blue Ridge. This road was built on the side of the Mountains because the tribe didn't want the engineers to blast the mountain.

After the Dragon


What a beautiful sight...the Smokey Mountains! Adam and I hiked a mile to get to see this sight! It was amazing!

Here are the men at Deals Gap Resort. This is the start of the Tail of the Dragon. 318 turns in 11 miles...what a rush. Adam is standing by the Tree of Shame. This tree is made up of parts from bikes/vehicles that have been so called "Bitten by the Dragon."

Robinsville, NC











This is our house/cabin that we rented out for a couple of days.
We met up with a couple from FL and a couple from NJ. There
were five of us from MN.

One of our many stops


This was taking along the way at our hotel in Elizabethtown, KY. We make it to Robinsville, NC the next day.

Trip to Tennessee


We started our journey by leaving in the afternoon and heading down to IL to meet up with the rest of the crew.
