Tenn. riding?

[hurricane jonny]

Thinking of moving to Tenn. from N.H. Would be able to ride year round. Nashville area, actually about 50 miles south from there. Trying to do my homework and make sure there are lots of places to ride. :laugh:

Plenty of places in Tennessee to ride. Especially if your moving to Nashville right in the middle of the state. Youll only be at most 3 hours or so from any riding areas in the state. Check out Coal Creek up near Knoxville. You got LBL on the Tennessee/KY border and Loretta Lynn's Ranch holds 2 great rides a year.

I'd have to look at a map, but I think that Nashville is not too far from the Hatfield McCoy area of SWestern WV. If fact, I think they are working on expanding that trail system into NE Tennessee. Those would be weekend trips....probably too far to go after work for a few hours.

Most of the riding in Tennessee is done on private property through private enterprise. A lot of us drive every weekend 1:30 to ride. If you’re moving fifty-miles south of Nashville, you will probably want to join NATRA and/or CRMA

NATRA has a membership only location near West Point Tennessee of about 4000 acres of 30+ miles of bike trails with more being added each weekend. They have an upcoming SERA enduro at the end of June. I also believe they have another smaller property where they run Hare-scrambles.

CMRA is a strict membership only area that is on 17,000 acres of some of the best hardcore riding in the state. This area is about 15-miles south of Winchester, TN. The area is closed during deer and turkey season. Many of us belong to both organizations.

There are a couple more great areas and many other racing opportunities as long as you’re willing to drive a couple of hours.

If you move to TN feel free to contact me.

#2 or at least answer to bub or bubba
#3 you must be married to your sister
#4 use "yall" instead
