Ernie McIntosh will lead the hogs to the Smoky Mountains to participate in 2nd Annual Rally. See below for details.


Here are the logistics regarding our upcoming Smoky Mountain Getaway. This year, we linked our trip to the 2nd Annual Smoky Mountain Bike Week. If you have never been to the area in the fall, you are in for a treat with an explosion of colors! On Saturday, September 28th, we will take our time traveling to Cherokee, NC. The route there will consist of some highways and secondary roads. We will spend the evening on Saturday, at the rally. On Sunday we will ride some of the most iconic & spectacular roads in the area (Blue Ridge Parkway, Cherohala Skyway, Tail of the Dragon and much more!). On Monday, September 30th I will lead those not staying for the rest of the week back home to Franklin with an ETA of 8pm CST.
