Motorcycle Ride to Chattanooga and Georgia

There is nothing in the world better to clear the head than a three day, 500 mile motorcycle ride.  From Clarksville to the Nooga.

What a great ride to the Nooga.   Its spring and we are in Chattanooga for the weekend.   We took all back roads crossing the state from north to southeast.  It was Terri's second long distance ride.  We road to Tupelo last summer, she is ready to move up to a bigger motorcycle.  It was a blast riding the 170 miles on Friday after Terri finished work.

Spring is in full swing the trees are leafing out, the wild redbuds and dogwoods are in full bloom.  It natures fresh start, a new beginning. Saturday we rode to Chickamauga to see the bloodiest 3 days of the civil war.  10000 souls perished in 3 days in mid September 1863.  This battle ensured that the north would win the civil war.

We had lunch on top of Lookout Mountain at Cafe on the Corner in Tennessee.  We then road along the top of Look out mountain to Georgia, stopping at Cloudland Canyon State Park to take in the views. Tomorrow it's back to Clarksville first stopping in Nashville.

On the way back we stopped to visit our son Thomas in east Nashville. We had lunch with him and his girlfriend Anna at Mad Donna's what a great eclectic restaurant in the heart of Five Points.   It was a nice visit with them.  We then headed home.

Once home it was time to wash the bikes and think about the next trip.
