I notice there are no Tennessee rally's, ride to eats, etc and was wondering if there are any riders out there in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Northern Georgia areas out there?  Maybe I would start a new get together in my area for a meet up/rally/ride to eat whatever?  Any interest out there????

I'll be in and out of East TN for a while.  Rebasing in Chicago over the next few years.  I'm just SW of Knoxville, but go to N. Ga regularly and would be interested.  vtwinlaw at gmail

Well thats a total of two of us so far.   :grin:  Not many of us in this area I guess.  I travel to Chicago for work also periodically, and to Wisconsin.  If we can get a few more riders maybe I can set up a ride to meet sometime.

3, that's  a  rally !  :boozing:
Ever been to the International Towing  and Recovery Hall of Fame Museum  in  Chattanooga ?
WAY cooler  than  it  sounds,  and a good meet up  destination/jump off point ...
Just a thought .  :bike-037:

Hi Bob- Im down in Hiawassee and usually ride my '02 LeMans over to Two Wheels Only in Suchess on Sunday mornings.  Surprisingly, there have been several other Guzzis the past few weekends.
Tellico Is only about 75 miles from my place if you want to meet in that area for brunch some time.  A national rally!

Speed Deluxe on Northshore in Chattanooga seems to be open to having marque meetups.  They specialize in Brit bikes and have recently become a Royal Enfield dealer.  They also have great coffee onsite.  Definitely sort of a hipster joint, but friendly folks.

That Speed Deluxe looks like a cool place.  Maybe I should ride my 1971 CB 750 Honda Chopper over there sometime.  LOL  :bike-037:

I'm in Tullahoma, TN, about 75 miles up boring Interstate 24 from Chattanooga. Probably 80 miles via more interesting Guzzi-worthy roads. I'm also 15 miles or so from Lynchburg.
