Doug - I lived in Nashville for a while and there is some excellent country roads all around Williamson County, specifically around Leiper's Fork...a short drive from Franklin. I've lived in N. Cal for 3 year years now and every weekend I wish I was on a Leiper's Fork ride. Downtown Leiper's Fork is a great place to start, I used to park in the community center parking lot, ride for 30-50 miles, and then come back and get some barbeque at Puckett's Grocery. Can't beat it. Best thing in the world. I'm sure Map My Ride or whatever similar site has some good suggestions on rides to do from there, but definitely use that as a starting point. There are some cool rides around Franklin too, can't go wrong there either, but it is a little more suburban there, whereas Leipers Fork is far more rural.
Natchez Trace is super popular, and very scenic. I did a few rides and an overnight tour on it and thought it had a heavy wind tunnel effect, not a fan. I always followed a group and suck at directions, so that's all I got. Good luck.
