Great Smokies IMRG #1971

The Thunder Tribe - Ride the Peaks, Conquer the Curves and Tame the Dragon

Welcome to our chapter website. The Great Smokies Indian Motorcycle Riders Group (IMRG) is a great group of riders based in Knoxville, Tennessee. We ride some of the best roads on the planet, right in our own back yard. We also take a couple of trips as a group each year. May 2025 will be the Windy 9 in Athens, Ohio!

Checkout our EVENTS page for upcoming rides and get togethers and the ABOUT page to meet our fantastic officers.

Our Safety Officer, Wayne Landrum, put together a short but sweet ride aimed at our newer members or anyone interested in learning more about group riding. We left Indian Motorcycle of Knoxville and headed on backroads up to Norris Dam, had lunch at Vol Diner in Rocky Top, TN, and ended the ride at the Biker Rags store in Clinton.

Our first annual Community Giveback at the Kroger in Powell was well received by the individuals and families for whom we donated to their grocery purchase. Thanks to all the members who showed up and pitched in. Special thanks to our president and events officer, Brian and Janee Helget, whose idea it was to use the leftover funds from our annual dues in this charitable endeavor. Also thanks to our treasurer and photographer, Gary Burleson, for the great pics.
