I know this is a late post, but I would second Shelby's comment about traffic on the lower parts of the Trace. I've been on the Trace around Jackson, MS in my car and it is used as a city street. Lots of traffic, no shoulder what so ever and they don't follow the speed limit. Our group of riders lost a friend on the Trace to a car when he took his bike with him on a business trip to Jackson. I would suggest scoping out your intended ride in your car first. Look to see what the traffic is like during rush hours around populated areas before you take the risk on your bike.
