Chickamauga and Chattanooga Military Park

Not MC related but a very interesting and beautiful Park

Best,

They block off streets and have parking for bikes only, I have seen a couple of Guzzi's and Meridian Triumphs but mostly V Twin. Pandora's is up at the intersection of Hwy 153 and 58 north of town, they carry BMW/Triumph/Ducati and are good folks.

Hang gliding on the west side of Lookout Mtn. is another attraction that is really popular, actually in Georgia but just a few miles south on the west brow outside Trenton.

Lookout Mtn. is an attraction itself, Battle of Lookout Mtn. and many beautiful views of the valley below.

Do not forget the aquarium downtown and many good food establishments. Chattanooga has become a very popular destination and you should not have a problem finding things to do. Enjoy.

Beautiful soaring site. Thermal, ridge, and wave soaring. Great place for cross country and badge work or just a scenic ride. Located 5 miles north of Benton, TN on Hwy 411. Two hours north from Atlanta, GA and 1 hour northeast of Chattanooga, TN. Rental cabins all around the area as well as camping, etc.
