Didn't take many pics here but if you're ever in Nashville STRONGLY suggest the country music hall of fame whether you like country or not

More friends and relatives, but again messed around a bit too.



Tin Lizzy lounge, highly suggest. FRied fresh Mississippi cat fish to die for, homemade greens and slaw.  I don;t eat the carbs but the southern hush puppies looked great.



Taking a break -the front porch where Elvis grew up. Tupelo, Mississippi



Had dinner with Sheila at Silver Star Casino

Great times. Next is rural roads all the way to Dothan Alabama for coffee with jamie and ronda if one or both will meet me spur of the moment

Crossed Alabama all rural roads.  And of course flat tracked some dusty dixie roads.

My bike would look different in this pic had i found a 1200GS button. I'll have an adv bike in the garage soon!

2759 miles and I decided to bring it home.  Matter of fact after all day in the saddle I did all night in the saddle and got in at about 5:30 AM.  Incredible trip. 

Next real trip soon will be 3 weeks off and a ride out west spending time with family again along the way

Nice ride report, have fun out west.

 

Super, incredibly, hugely jealous. 

^^^^  thanks and no reason to be jelly.........   join me next time! =)

+1 on that.

Do you have family near Silver Star Casino?
I'm grew up a few miles from there.

Yes sir, My grandparents were on the east side of town. HWY 16 about 3 miles out. I spent the summers there until I was about 17.  Whenever I'm near MS I still go through that town.  I also visit this place as often as possible, it was part of my childhood and I can't believe its still standing, much less open for business!

It's like you did a circle ride around my location.  I looked at the pictures prior to reading the captions and was like. "That looks like Elvis's home, I thought he was going to the mountains?"

I love putting the GPS on shortest distance when I am riding my Versys.  I find many dirt roads and little farm roads.  The TransAmericanTrail passes within 1/2 mile from my property.

Cool, 3 miles out 16 east they are right about where the turn to Bogue Chitto is.
I grew up on hwy 19 north about 8 miles out.
You know the connection with Williams Brothers to the Mannings. Olivia who is Archie Manning's wife is a Williams, her father was Cooper Williams.


For ya'll not from the south, that just how we do it.

I didn;t realize I was so close twowheeladdict, or o'd have met somewhere to shake your hand and run the C14 down some dirt roads (I push the "R1200GS" button on it quite often!).

Cigar thanks for the history lesson =)

Here is the loop I took around the US. In a few places I forgot to turn on Bubbler GPS tracker APP. Matter of fact I need to post up about that APP

Looks like you passed within 10 miles of me.

Did you stop in at Lovelace Cafe on 100 at the north terminus of the Natchez Trace?  Did you ride some of the Trace?

So you had the burgers in Highlands!


Awesome trip. I'm envious.

Thanks! and yes sir, I was so impressed with your suggestion in Highlands

Indeed I'm there and all about Tampa Sportbikes

Thats our local tampa forum, I'm there as a participate member, and i also moderate 2 zx14 forums. I wonder why that local forum came up on a Google search before this one ?
