We are thinking of going to The Cherokee Survivors Rally Sept 7 - 9th. Has anyone ever been? Is it worth going?

 

Heather, I live near there on the Tn. side. The Cherokee rally's are okay I guess. I hear there is more fun in the campgrounds than at the show though. We went to the srping rally and it was a mud pit. They normally have some good music and some real nice bikes. The good thing is that there is a bunch of great riding in the area. The BRP, the Dragon, Cherahola, and a lot more are very close to the area. One note for you all, there is a rod run in Pigeon Forge that weekend so there will be heavy traffic in Cherokee, Gatlinburg, and Pigeon Forge. Be prepared for traffic congestion. Have fun if you go and enjoy the Smoky Mountains, they are awesome!!

Thanks for the info. I appreciate it!

 

If you all need any info on the area, directions or whatever, just let me know. I'd be happy to help.

we are traveling through Gatlinburg on our way up to northern Va the first weekend in Sept, 2-5 is that when this rally is ??? if so i want to reroute.

 

No, the car show is the weekend of the 9th and 10th and then another one the following weekend. That first weekend should be less hectic.

 

Thanks for the info...

 

We're thinking about going up Sept 22 - 25. Anybody know if there is anything going on in the Cherokee area that weekend that should be avoided???

 

Heatherc,

Here's a site listing the rally in Cherokee. I try and make at least one of the rallys each year as well as both rally's in Maggie Valley. While your there, go into Maggie Valley and check out the Wheels through time museum, its one of the best I've ever seen.

Thanks Dexo;

We went by Wheels Through Time back in June. It is a great stop. I've never seen many boardtrackers so I was really impressed with number of those they had. He fired up an Excelsior Henderson while we were there; makes me want to save my pennys and buy an old racer!
