History of the Trail of Tears Commemorative Motorcycle Ride ® In the early 1990's, Jerry Davis, of Scottsboro, Alabama, was researching Native American
history surrounding his area. He learned that the Trail of Tears
removal had used a route passing along present-day Hwy.
72. He began talking with longtime friend, Bill Cason, of Whitwell, Tennessee
about what they could do to bring public awareness to this event.
Jerry felt that this route should be officially recognized and marked.
Conversation after conversation took place. One day Bill Cason, a motorcycle rider,
suggested that the best way to he knew to get people's attention was to have a bike ride.
