    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Day rides around Nashville

I might end up in Nashville a little this year. Are there any good day rides in, and around, the area? What is the area like for riding in general?
 
Nashville proper is pretty flat. East toward Cookville and West in the Buffalo River area (Loretta Lynn's) has some decent riding. Clarksville TN is between here and Nashville, with some advance notice I could meet you there and show you around the Land Between the Lakes National recreation area.:)

Not yet. No immediate plans but expect to have some business in the area later in the year (fingers crossed). I'll keep you posted.

http://devilstriangletn.com/ This one is not as far from Nashville, close to Oak Ridge. I rode it this Fall. Very challenging, not for beginners

Yeah, thats a great ride. A few of us made our way there during a rally a few years ago. Would love to go back.

Thanks Matt. I've been looking at that site quite a bit. Most of the interesting rides area a little farther east toward the mountains. But it does look like there are a few interesting routes closer to town. Now I'll just have to get down there and check them out.
 
The Alvin York State Park is Sgt. York's home and is about 130 miles away in Pall Mall, TN and is worth the visit and is in nice country. Andy Jackson's home, The Hermitage is just outside Nashville and likewise is worth the visit. The Dragon / US 129 isn't that far away....about 200 miles.

If I get my 700 to agree with me, maybe I can take him out in the sticks between here and Dickson. I'm talking roads with so many twisties that the DOT stopped painting the lines when they built a straighter replacement road.
