The Tennessee Riders have been meeting every Sunday for years. They are skilled riders with many many miles on their tires--riding with them stretches me and I learn crucial lessons each time. You can join them on a ride, just don't show up in shorts and a t-shirt: this is an ATGATT crowd.
Meeting at McDonalds on Sunday at 8 a.m.
Bikes: 2 Suzuki SV650's, 3 Yamaha FJR's, 1 Yamaha FZ1, 1 Suzuki DL1000 V-Strom, and 1 Honda ST1100
Cato Coati gets some love
This gentleman no longer rides a bike, but follows the group in his Mustang.
Phyllis: pillion rider extraordinaire.

This is some of what we came for: lots of twists and turns on TN-85/TN-52 between Livingston and Jamestown TN. I'm a new street rider, so this was a challenging road for me. I've made a lot of progress, but I still have tons of work to do to confidently speed up my cornering. Here's a little video from my helmet cam.
I split off from the group on the way home and stopped by Dale Hollow Dam and Lake - posted separately.
Looks like you are having a great time, I have never been to TN. There is sooooooo much beauty, I bet this is very soothing to your soul and balanced thinking. take care and be careFULL, I am not a Bike fan myself and they are dangerous, but I guess if you are going to live it up-go for it. love Auntie frannie
