We did the KY Bourbon Trail October 2009. Fantastic ride from coastal GA. I wrote an article for a local magazine about the trip and would be happy to share the details with you. Highly recommended! Email me and I'll send you a copy of the article in MS Word format. sjr1253@att.net

Bourbon Trail is good. If you take the tours at the distilleries, they each have their own story. But if you want to go for good motorcycles roads go to NW Arkansas. I think you shoud do both.

Just road the Bourbon Trail in September. It was worth the time and I really enjoyed it. We went through 3 distilleries one day and 3 the next. Check on the time of each one because some tours stop at 2:00 in the afternoon. It was a beautifull ride!
