There is so much in Nashville its hard to say what you will like to see. If you want a hundred dollar Prime Rib Jimmy Kelly's has that. If you want to go Wine tasting Arrington Vinyards can help with that. Some of the best Bar BQ Jacks can do that. There are more than 50 Bars playing Live music until the wee hours of the morning.

If you want to see all this from the comfort of a Limo I can help with that lol!

Others mentioned the Parthenon in Centinial Park. thats a great site and they do usually have something going on there every weekend of the summer to see. We have the Science Muesem thats neat along with the State Muesem. The Country Music Hall of Fame is neat.

We have several Shopping Malls Opry Mills is nice and next door is the Opryland Hotel. there are several gardens in the hotel worth taking a look at.

You wanna hit the Harley dealers? Boswell on Fesslers Lane has a fine burger joint inside. I prefer Bumpus in Murfreesboro since I bought my bike there. Bost is in West Nashville. Cool Springs is nice I hear but I havent made that one yet.

You wanna go hiking? we have several State parks worth looking at. Percy Werner is beautiful any time of year. there are several campgrounds in Davidson County if your into that. they are mostly set up around RV camping but they let you tent camp. You can find nicer tent camping with in a 45 minute ride of Nashville.

We have Football, Baseball and Ice Hockey if you plan your trip around a game.

What are you looking for in a trip to Nashville?

there's a Ramada Inn on I=65 across the street from the stadium with a secure parking lot. I stay at it because you can walk to printer's alley / downtown (it has a guitar shaped in door pool)

I am open for just about anything. Thanks for all the great suggestions. It sounds like I am going to need more than three days to take it all in!

Last year we rode from South Carolina to Maine, great trip. This year we were looking for something different. We have somewhat worn out riding the Blue Ridge Parkway so we thought we would venture a little farther west. I know Nashville is a great town so I figured why not.

The Full Moon Saloon on Broadway always has great acts and a good atmosphere too.
