    Stayed at Motel 6 last year . they have a rather large parking area. You should have no problems. (last year it was Holiday Inn Express)

    mowerman, just had knee replacement three weeks ago. doctor won't let me drive my spyder or ride two up, but we're bringing the harley to cuba so at least terry can ride. terry says you got to have a harley around to keep the spyder riders honest. lol
    have your wife and you give us a hello at the motel so we can meet.

    Hate that you can't ride you'll be missed, think we can get a wheel chair and tie it to the back of terry's harley...... cookie monster he is, I still laugh when I think of Thanksgiving. We'll be in late Tuesday night or early Wednesday.

    Scotty:
    You're right! The only workout the trailer is getting, is following the RTS. The older I get the less I seem to "rough it".

    Spyder and Harley clean, Bushtec trailer loaded, ready head out Sunday morning. Set up a route in the GPS running west from Thorn Hill, TN on back roads in the northern part of Tennessee to Union City, TN, then to Doniphan, MO and then up to Cuba. It would have been a great ride; however, looking at the weather is looks like we could run into some severe weather on Monday so I will go to plan B. I will unload the Bushtec and load the Spyder and Harley on the trailer and head on out Sat afternoon. I think I will now go up to Howe, IN. and visit my sister, she is very ill, and then head down to Cuba to get there on Tue.

    I'm trailering mine to Cowtown on Tuesday to get some work done on it. Hoping to be able to leave my trailer and vehicle there. Otherwise, I'll just leave it at the Super 8
