Season of Change

EXCLUSIVE TO TORR CLUB MEMBERS ONLY
Thursday November 2nd to Saturday November 4th

 

ABOUT “SEASON OF CHANGE” RUN:

The TransAmerica Trail, commonly referred to as the TAT, is the cross-country adventure ride of a lifetime with mostly off-pavement traversing. From scenic vistas and unique attractions to rough terrain and challenging conditions, the TAT presents every rider with the opportunity for an unforgettable journey and memories that will last a lifetime. Depending on the weather and location, riders may face challenges including mud, sand, snow, and rocks among others. As the trail is made up of dirt, gravel, forest, farm, and brief sections of paved roads.

We will be running just over 400 miles of the trail through the Smoky Mountains in the South East portion of TN. We will be covering 3 states, beginning in Murphy NC and ending in LaFayette GA.

While we all like to have fun and enjoy “spirited” driving, please, drive WITHIN YOUR LIMITS and obey all traffic laws! THIS IS NOT A RACE. This is simply an opportunity for you to get out there and experience for yourself what you and your truck are capable of and more importantly have some fun with some really good people. The trail system is a mix of terrain some of which can be more of a technical drive with some paved sections peppered in that gives a welcome opportunity to relax and enjoy the scenery. Speaking of the views and the fall colors you are about to experience cannot be beat anywhere else in the country!

We will be staying in Murphy NC Thursday and Friday night.

Saturday Lunch is on us at Pauls Drive In in GA

Saturday night we will have dinner at Hamiltons Food and Spirits in Dalton GA. Dinner vouchers will be available to all attendees and passengers at an additional cost of $35ea.
