Day trip Eastern Tennessee

I've been exploring trails around my area "Cookeville Tn."
Just thinking there's enough trails for a full day starting at Copelands cove across to Allred Tn. then a short blacktop run say less than 10 miles then back on trails. Pretty easy stuff mainly with a good hill for those wanting a challenge and another that is long and technical. Just seeing if there is any interest.
P.S. I goy a cool place to camp to and can let people use an extra bathroom for showers etc.

you know I'm down, providing that I'm here and so is my 4runner. I should have it back up here within the next 2 weeks at the latest. I've gotta get my top back on.

Cookeville is half way between Nashville and Knoxville on I-40 mm288. Approx. 100 miles north of Chattanooga.

I don't know how to do the "poll" thing here, but with the weather cooling off the first or second weekend of October would be fine with me. I'm flexable as long as I don't have to miss church on Sunday morning.

Went back today and found some neat cliffs and an old grave yard. This thing had to be from the late 1800. Kinda wild because it was quiet a ways from any main roads.

Have to remember this thing is my DD and my only way home so I wont be doing anything too serious If it does get rough, I'll just ride along.

i could probably do the weekend 14-17 as well. if anyone else from the atlanta area wants to go (rocko, kpooch) i'd be down for settin up a caravan.

what are the trails like in difficulty? i ask because of tire choice. i normally run BFG ATs...would those be ok out there? i just dont wanna risk damaging them TOO much. my typical wheeling set is some PC mud terrains but they have real low tread...one has some bald spots.

if we get something doing and can take some non-yota people, i know some guys that drive heeps and someone in a 73 panzer something (swiss military vehicle) and someone in a pathfinder that may be interested
