The first time I tripped the area was in peak season and not the best if you don't know the area very well, IMO. The traffic near Gatlinburg - Pigeon Forge was horribly slow and bikes got hot. It was 103 temps and the heat coming off the bikes and pavement was incredible. Even so, it was a great adventure.
