Hohenwald TN to Nashville, 60 miles.
Today’s ride was awesome. One of our portion riders suggested we take a different route, using Natchez Trace Trail. I love him for it. Today’s ride was easily Top 3 on our trip and was absolutely stunning. The pavement was awesome. The terrain was rolling with some longer climbs. There were a lot of fancy pull-offs with waterfalls, scenic vistas, etc..

We were passed by a total of 3 cars. We saw around 100 bikers. When you see 10x more cyclists than cars, you know you’re on a excellent road. Today was no different, and I kind of wished we did 400 miles on this road coming up from Mississippi.

Dear Natchez Trace, please don't stop
Nashville was fantastic, even with the flood damage. A few of us rented a hotel room for beds and no rules. After recharging with a nap, we went downtown for a BBQ dinner and to enjoy live music. I absolutely love country music, and Nashville is a fantastic town. Each and every bar had spectacular live music – so we obviously had to close out some of the bars before heading back to our plush hotel beds.
