Sounds good to me Frank. We could meet up at the I-10/I-110 split unless you can think of a better location further down. I would be coming in on West I-10 after crossing the river at Wallace. Just let me know what time and location and we'll be there. You did plan on going up US-61 through St. Francisville, correct?

I'm ready! Been wanting to ride down there in the next few weeks anyway. Know of a good little ole restaurant just up the road at Port Gibson that attracts a lot of bikers. Southern cooking buffet open 365 days a year.

Jamie you have talked about that place before and I have been wanting to try it what time and where do you want to meet and then meet Bobby?

Are we eating in Port Gibson, or in Natchez ? I kinda would prefer Natchez. What is the name of the place in Port Gibson, and where is it located ?

[Cajunrider]

Natchez is good for me. That was the original plan.

Natchez it is. See you then, Mitch.

Sounds more like a question than an original plan I don't care where we eat as I just wanted to ride and see some old friends. The only thing I said was that Jamie had talked about the restaurant in Port Gibson before and that I would like to try it but I don't care when just some time and the 29th will be good for me.

What time are you planning on being in Natchez and where would you like to meet.

Lets see it is:
162 miles for Mitch
100 miles for Bobby
95 miles for Frank
120 miles for Jamie
252 miles for me I think I will have to leave early

Jim, you decide where we eat. It's your ride. We can ride all day around Natchez. Port Gibson is just up the road and it's a little different than all the other generic restaurants you'll see in Natchez. Out away from the city traffic, also. Lot's of history and old Arthur will even sing to ya while you eat his good ole southern cooking, with fried chicken as his specialty. There's always a lot of bikers there, also. But I really don't care where we eat, as long as we eat...There's a thousand different ways we can go down, Jim. We can pick up Bobby on 55 in Terry and go down to Brookhaven and go across on 64, I think. Or we can meet at the Trace in Clinton and go down, it's about 75 or 80 miles from there. Or Bobby can meet us in Clinton on I-20 and we can go over to Vicksburg and go down 61 to Natchez, going right by the Country Store Restaurant, as I mentioned earlier. Or we can meet Bobby on on 18 there in Jackson and go all the way to Utica and get on 61 from there..Lot's of possibilities.. I'll come up to Winona and meet ya Jim, give me a little more ridin' and that's what it's all about, anyway. See y'all on the 29th. It'll make Eureka Springs seem a little closer, also.

Lets meet on the Trace at Clinton. I'm tired of highway driving.

Jamie let's eat at the restaurant that Frank was talking about we can always grab Bobby and eat at the old country store any time and Frank was the one that started talking about this ride I just jumped on the band wagon cause I wanted to ride. You want to meet in Winona about 7:00 ?

Hey, Jim. Didn't mean to cause a ruckus. I hope you guys are ok with Natchez. I know that ya'll go there more than us, so it may not seem as big a deal to ya'll, but it's a good outing for us. I would like to go the restaurant that Jamie talked about sometime. Let me know when ya'll go.
Mitch and I are meeting here in BR about 9:00 AM. That will probably put us in Natchez between 11:00 and 11:30. We can start out later if that is more desirable for you guys. I can leave whenever need be. My wife and I are looking forward to meeting ya'll, and having a nice day. Hope the weather is nice.

A couple of friends and I have been trying to plan a ride up there. I'll be returning from a vacation trip just before that weekend, but I might be able to swing it. I hope to meet you guys in person one day.

Kip

Keep us posted if you can make it. Hope you can.

Bring it on Kip. I replied to your PM about the departure time. One of my operators and his wife may be coming along also. He rides a HD Classic but that's OK. I told him he could ride in the back.

Good thing I have a darkly tinted face shield if a Harley is coming along. I wouldn't want anybody to recognize me. LOL !!
