It runs from Nashville to the SW, pretty much as far as you want to go.

There are some pretty fun curvy sections from Franklin to Columbia (through Liepers Fork).

I'm up that way a couple of times a month -
If you get a chance, go by Boswell's HD on Fesslers Lane and pick up one of their Nashville Trace maps (big display right behind the cash register) and it has a lot of good day trips around the area along the Natchez Trace.

Also - check the schedule at the Double E Bar/grill in Old Hickory - they will have stuff happening when it warms up.

Seconds on the Natchez Trace! Great riding but watch your speed as National Park Rangers do police it. Also watch out for all the wildlife crossing or along edges of road. Tons of deer, turkeys, and other critters.

Head over to Loveless Cafe (someone recommended earlier) for breakfast, then top off gas and head down the Trace, which is a limited access winding 2 lane blacktop 400mile long National Park.

Roads all over middle Tennessee are great for riding, in any direction you want to go.

Welcome to Tennessee.

Welcome to Tennessee.
I just wanted to echo the welcome and the warning - the speed on the trace is nice for cruising, I just generally stay off there around dusk and daybreak because of the deer and other critters. i don't like night riding there because of the wildlife, and you are often in cell phone challenged areas as far as a signal goes. For me - great in the day - just watch for critters.

I live in Smyrna and work in Nashville. I've only done the trace on a rocket, and like others said, watch your speed. They're pretty good at setting up road blocks ahead of you.

Welcome to Tennessee.
