Thanks Moe for the information. If you call Knoxville a high crime area you must be living on Waltons Mountain,good night John-boy
Born in Knoxville 50 years ago and have lived here for the most part all my life.
Pat,
might I suggest Jefferson County 30 mins.east of Ktown and 30 mins. west of the Smokies. Mostly rural areas but a hop skip and jump to I-40.
Cherokee Lake and Douglas Lake.Both very beautiful areas. Short ride to Hot Springs, NC one of the latest must ride and rediscover areas in the region.
