I found another write up, I will see if I can find the link but it seems most of the TN portion is roads.

I've rode the whole thing, what are you wanting to know?

 

[sseaman]

Is it worth taking the time to follow it, or is it all paved roads?

It was about 75% paved but Sam redid TN this spring and got the majority nonpaved again as it was 10 years ago.

 

[sseaman]

Thanks, what vehicle did you run it in?

 

[cdalejef]

Eastern half on a Honda Transalp, western half on a Honda XR600.

 

[sseaman]

Any areas that would be a problem for a full size SUV?

 

[cdalejef]

No, not untill CO. I plan to run it again in my Mazda next year.

 

[sseaman]

thanks

That is great info. That is the kind of drive I would like to do in the 40, dragging the M416.

Where do we find this info?

Edit: Never mind I found it. Duh.

here is a link to a blog where they did the whole trail. You need to read it from end to beginning since it is in reverse order.
