If you want to avoid busy roads, I would recommend going back on the Trace to the Leiper's Fork exit (13 miles) and then going south of Franklin through Thompson's Station, then over to MB on back roads. If this appeals to you, I or someone else can give details. Once east of Franklin, you will have many nice roads to get to MB.
How many in the party? Would you like a guide partway?
We will have 14 to 16 riders. We welcome anyone to join us for the riding, and we ALWAYS carry lots of cold beer for afterwards!!! Don't have dates confirmed yet, but looks like early May.
Re: Re: Re: Bike Ride from Nashville to Chattanooga
Early May, ehh? Try planning it so you will be in Chattanooga for the first weekend in May. That is when 3 state 3 mountain challege is. It is a good ride.
I think 14-16 is too many for my apartment, but I'll be happy to catch up with you here.
