Return from RFTW....the Epic Ride
I'm taking the plunge and doing the RFTW as an FNG. I'm really jazzed about it. I'll be on the Southern Route but I've traveled the Central and Northern routes visiting family and friends and on the way back to SoCal, I'll be riding that way anyway. My return trip is being planned with a couple mandatory stops. I have about 2 weeks or so to get home, so time isn't a big issue. One of my granddaughters lives in Midland, NC and so on the way from D.C. I'm taking a deter through Mt Airy, NC to visit the Andy Griffith Museum and Mayberry. That should be cool. After I leave Midland, I'm heading to Nashville for a couple days. I have an AirBnb not far from the downtown area but actually don't know much about Nashville. I know I'm going to have a beer...or two...at the Wildhorse Saloon. After Nashville, I'm heading to Shellknob, Mo where my brother-in-law has a BnB with a Harley theme. It's an old, but not OLD, bank building he converted to a party place. It's pretty cool and if anyone ever gets to that area, hit me up and I'll give out his number for reservations. After a few days there, I'm heading to Tulsa to visit a cousin of mine. He got his first Harley last year, which I never thought he would get. After Tulsa, I'm heading up to Wichita to visit some family for a few days. Then it's off to Fort Collins, Co to visit another granddaughter. After that, I'm heading to Las Vegas....hopefully I'll still have money left after the visit with my granddaughters. After Vegas, I'm heading down to Prescott Valley to visit with an old AF buddy who just retired there...lucky bastard, lol. Then its heading out on the I40 through Barstow and then home to the Beach....If anyone has any cool, must-see places, or just wants to have a brew with me on my way through, let me know. I'm open and looking forward to my Epic Ride.....
