Day 34: Nashville to Crossville

I had a great 125 mile ride today - one of best rides of the trip. The scenery and weather were superb; and I felt good and rode strong.

The first 12 miles getting out of downtown Nashville were not much fun due to heavy traffic but after that the route took us on many backroads heading east towards Crossville. The countryside in this part of Tennessee is some of the prettiest in the entire U.S. and the fall colors made it even better. I did capture the route on my iPhone App and have sent it out as a tweet. If you are ever in this area, take a little extra time and follow this route (either by car or bike) - you won't be disappointed.

Tomorrow we continue are journey across Tennessee with a 107 mile ride to Sevierville which sits near the entrance to the Great Smokey Mountains National Park. It should be another beautiful ride, but morning showers are a possibility so it may start out a little wet.
