Default Road trip

I am looking for highway directions for an upcoming road trip. Four bikes leaving Daytona Beach and headed for the Nashville area. Leaving Nashville going to Pigeon Forge, then on scenic roadways through the Parkway and up to Boone, NC.

Pure Highway (cuz that's what ya asked for):
I-95N --> I-10W -->I-75N-->I-475 (around Macon, GA)-->I-285 (around Hotlanta, GA)-->I-75N-->I-24W-->Nashville.

Yahoo Route (pure highway)

From Nashville...I-40E-->I-275 (around Knoxville)-->I-40E-->TN66S-->US321S-->Pidgeon Forge

Nashville to Pidgeon Forge


Better route: two-laners all the way up

Thanks. If time permits, we may take backroads as much as we can. This is my preferred route, but the other guys cant get alot of time off from work and Interstate Highways are a good option for them.

Thanks. Long overdue roadtrip. I retired from the FD last summer, and this is my first trip since.
