If anyone is thinking of doing the Trans America Trail and want's to rent rather than ship their own bike out, a buddy of mine in Townend, Tennessee has started doing it http://gsmmotorent.com/portfolio-item/ride-trans-america-trail-tat/. It looks a pricey way of doing things to be honest but it's an option at least.
Dan rents bikes and has some great accommodation in the Smoky Mountains and is worth a visit even if you are just passing through the area
