thanks for the encouragement, If we get ahead of schedule, there's this place of question just inside the TN boarder that we could NAP in or, just take in a little of the Big easy sites, but that early it would be watching, and smelling, the streets getting cleaned.

Well, tonight 2 buddies and I are leaving Franklin TN for an Iron Butt run to New Orleans and back. About 1080 miles in 24hrs or less. We'll be taking 65 so to Birmingham AL, then on 59 so to Meridian MS, On to Slidell LA on rte 10. then into the Big Easy for Beignet's and cafe Au Laix at cafe Du Monde, should be there by 6am when they open.
We need to check back in Franklin TN by 8pm tomorrow, some other friends and our wife's are meeting us at a local joint.


mmm...beignets...one of the many things I miss about the ole town...be safe...

Recap and pics
Rained all the way to Birmingham, which slowed us a bit. One of the Guys was looking for the Easy Button to push but I kept encouraging him to keep going. really, the problem was his rain pants where too tight and all that  :huepfenlol2:
there are Two Walls you hit while doing this, One about 3-4 am and the other about 2-3 pm. the CB helps, plus lemon drops. I really enjoyed doing this, especially with my friends. The HOG chapter I used to belong to is falling apart and a few of the guys and I started riding more and more away from the chapter till finally we formed our own RC, HOGNUTZ. this Iron Butt is a requirement for membership. in some photos you'll a Z being flashed, that's what that is.
