Sites to See On TN & KY Trip?

[MarkLawson]

Planning a short trip to middle Tennessee & southern Kentucky around the end of September. Any suggestions for places to see & roads to ride. We'll have one new rider who is fine on the twisties, but cannot to too much in elevation changes. When on the backseat, she can always look away from that deep drop off, but on in the front seat, she doesn't have that luxury.

Thanks,

Mammoth Cave in Kentucky. Especially the caving tour, if you have the time.

Been there, done that, white knuckle style. The more times you ryde on overpasses and roads with deep drop offs, the easier it gets. The trick is to relax, focus on the road and block out the scenery.

Thanks. I've ridden Colorado 5-6 times over the last 20+ years. I don't have the problem, but my sweet wife struggles with it. When on the back of the Goldwing, she's fine because she doesn't have to look, if she doesn't want to. While driving her Spyder, well that's another story.

You're right, of course. Time & experience will help. We just don't have that luxury before this trip...
