    Default planning my first road trip

    Got my st-s 2 months back. My wife now wants to take it out for a road trip on our upcoming anniversary. ..12th I might add. Though I am still looking for a few places in north or central Alabama we are excited. This is a first time thing for us. We got saddle bags backrest, just ordered a ram mount for the center ofthe handle bars to hold my large phone as a possible gps. All our friends just go to the beach. .. pshhhh we travel in style.

    Headed to tunica? Last time I was in tunica I was working. We stopped at a casino for the 5 dollars buffet. While waiting for some1 to finish eating I put 2 dollars in the penny machine and hit the jackpot with 1 pull. The lady nxt to me said if it was the dollar one I would have won 800, 000 but I settled for my 80 bucks and was happy
