Day 0 (Sat, 5/30) – First things first, we’re doing tattoos at the Kickoff Party. There will be food, drinks, bad jokes, and some details about the adventure you’ve got ahead of you.

Day 1 (Sun, 5/31) – Around 10am you’ll charge off into the Great Smokies in a silent rush. We’ll send you off with a flag wave and starting gun.

Days 2 – 6 (Mon, 6/01 to Fri, 6/05) – We’re not quite sure what you’ll get yourself into but if you get lost, drive West. Try the moonshine.

Day 7 (Sat, 6/06) – The journey comes to a close in Nashville, TN. You’ll either show up with a big smile on your face or you’ll be grimacing. Either way, we’ll toast in your honor. The exact location will be shared in due time.
