I haven't personally ridden a motorcycle on the Trace, but these people have...

See what it's like from people who've been there, done that.

UPDATE: Photos from the day's events here.

Word is... Jason Aldean, Big Kenny Alphin, Shooter Jennings, Little Big Town and more country music artists will be joining Dierks Bentley for his 2nd Annual Miles & Music for Kids celebrity motorcycle ride and concert to benefit Vanderbilt Children's Hospital on Sunday, September 30 in Nashville, Tennessee.

This year's ride takes on a new route down the scenic Natchez Trace Parkway ending at the world famous Loveless Cafe.

I'm often asked questions like, "How much bike traffic is there on the Trace?"

And when it comes to motorcycles, cars, trucks & RV's... "How many people drive on the Natchez Trace Parkway anyway?"

The very first (or very last, depending on which direction you're heading) gas station on the Natchez Trace Parkway is the Shell Station near the intersection of Highway 100 and the Natchez Trace Parkway.

There is also a cut-through to/from Bellevue using McCrory Lane, which intersects Highway 100 right next to the Shell Station.

With the warmer weather (we're seeing 70's during the day and 40's at night here in Franklin) and extended daylight hours (thanks to Daylight Saving Time being bumped up 3 weeks earlier), the one place that motorcyclists in Middle Tennessee flock to is the Natchez Trace Parkway.

But, the fact of the matter is... motorcycle riders from many different places are making their way to the Trace these days.

The Natchez Trace Parkway has become a leading tour route for motorcyclists from all over the country. Everyone wants to "ride the Trace" at some point in time!

Q: Where's Marty???

A: Apparently on a 'recovery tour' that only requires two wheels and a great sense of adventure!

Come along as Marty shares "turn by turn" and "stop by stop" what it's like to ride your motorcycle along the Natchez Trace Parkway for the first time...

Wondering what it's like to drive along the Natchez Trace Parkway?

Thanks to Columbia7200, a motorcycle rider from Spring Hill, Tennessee... now you can experience it yourself, right from your computer screen!
