Live from the IHRA TOC race in Memphis
 
Well not yet but we'll be pulling out hopefully by midday. We did a little testing (new driveshaft) at MDIR yesterday running the bracket race and made it down to 4 cars that was a nice way to start this trip. We're planning on doing some tourist stuff while in Memphis so we'll have lots of photos of our trip and race. Stay tuned !

Thanks guys I'm going to try. Well the traffic on Rt81 is terrible backed up for miles, we made it to Roanoke VA after getting a late start (2:30) and we're now parked in the Walmart Hilton parking lot. We should be on the road early tomorrow but its still a long drive I'll post photos when we get there.

Well we're finally here, its been a long ride close to a 1000 mile but we made it and are parked in the staging area on asphalt. Tomorrow we'll be on the bike checking out some sights. First on the agenda is a visit to Grace land and a paddle boat ride on the Mississippi (I've never seen it) we also want to find a Memphis BBQ joint (I've watched to many food channel programs) I here its good out here. Well here are a few travel photos its always funny the things you see on the road. Thanks Greg we're going to enjoy this experience.

We got to knock a couple things off the to do list today. We went to Grace Land and I got my Memphis BBQ we ate at The Pig on Beale St. Dave we couldn't make Rendezvous it didn't open until 4:30 and I didn't want to be in town with the traffic on the bike. Tomorrow there's a rumor that there going to start parking, we'll see. Tomorrows plan for us is to find the Mississippi,I'm going to keep riding west until I run into it. Here are a few photos from Grace land and Beale St.
