Wearable Ride Diary! Show off where you've been. 
Our SmokyMountainConnection.com T-shirt is now available through the web site! Listed on the back are the roads all bikers aim to conquer...let others know which road you've vanquished by marking it off on the back as you go. We've gotten emails from riders who say they are planning on marking the date of their ride on a particular road, crossing the road off, making their shirt into a wearable rider's diary. Good idea! Got other ways to use your shirt? We'd like to know about it.

Motorcycle & Mountain Trivia Minimize

The very first Harley-Davidson was created by three brothers and their friend. What are their names?

1903 was the first year for H-D, what year was the first V-twin introduced?

The Iron Butt Rally is held in the US every two years and starts at different points each time it runs. How many miles does a biker have to travel and in how many days?


Tennessee was at first part of North Carolina, and then was known briefly as the State of Franklin. It later became part of the "U.S. Territory South of the River Ohio," and finally was admitted to the Union as the State of Tennessee--the 16th state--on June 1, 1796, and ranks 17th in population compared to other states.

There are two official flowers for the state of Tennessee, the Iris and the Passion Flower. While there are several different colors among the iris, and the act naming the iris as the state flower did not name a particular color, by common acceptance the purple iris is considered the state flower.
The Great Smoky Mountain National Park is the most visited park in our country. Over 9 million mountain adventurers come from all over the USA and the world to experience the beauty of the Smokys.
