Fleeter Logs: July 2009
http://fleeterlogs.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Come ride with me on my two-wheeled travels across the USA. 144 BMW MOA Rally in Johnson City, TN. BMW MOA Rally in Johnson City, TN. That many people would tend to visualize. Most people start thinking Sturgis, when they hear biker rally. But a BMW Rally is much removed from Sturgis. A simple way to explain the difference would be . where the Sturgis Rally is X rated, BMW MOA Rally gets a easy G rating. Fredericksburg, VA to Johnson City, TN to Asheville, NC,. And back home to Fredericksburg. Day 3-6 We...

http://nomadwillie.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
The Future is not Today. Saturday, March 14, 2015. Well the riding season has arrived. Oops, there still is snow blocking the entrance to the garage where my FJR is located, however with the temps finally rising, it will succumb to bike wash soon enough. I will be participating in 2 Grand Tours this year. First one is the GLMC Talk Like a Pirate Grand Tour. I have participated in GLMC's GT for the last 5 years and finished in the top 10 in four of them. Posted by Willie aka NomadWillie. Into the menu sys...

The Future is not Today: November 2014
http://nomadwillie.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
The Future is not Today. Sunday, November 16, 2014. Some Rock N' Roll. A couple of weeks ago MeAsWe and I (or is that Me) headed for Ohio. Now we could have taken I-90 all the way there, but what fun would that have been, so we headed thru Connecticut into New York and finally picked up RT 6 somewhere around Scranton PA. To make a little time we did use I-84 to get out of New England. Right inside the door was this guy having coffee. Last stop in Middletown was the Webb Horton Mansion. Webb made his ...

The Future is not Today: The Plane The Plane
http://nomadwillie.blogspot.com/2015/05/the-plane-plane.html
The Future is not Today. Monday, May 11, 2015. The Plane The Plane. Morning breakfast with a coupon from Jailhouse Suites. Some place along the way. Seems the Midwest has a lot of these vintage gas stations. Before we got out of Dayton, we visited Endora from Bewitched. Stopped in Sidney to grab a picture of Louis Sullivan's Bank built in 1917. It still operates as a bank today. Most of the time it is not possible to go inside the buildings. The stain glass ceiling and windows are really kewl...A little ...

http://nomadwillie.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
The Future is not Today. Saturday, July 26, 2014. A Sprinkling of Nutmeg. Got the Bloomfield High School and headed out of town. The GPS was acting up and I figured I had a corrupted waypoint in the route, because everytime I charged up the route, the GPS would shut down and reboot itself. Time for some Point to Point navigation. I find myself going down this neighborhood street, passed these guys coming home and had to go back for some pictures. I headed for the next historic spot, the Deep River Freigh...

The Future is not Today: August 2014
http://nomadwillie.blogspot.com/2014_08_01_archive.html
The Future is not Today. Friday, August 22, 2014. WWW Tour - I'm Going Home - Day 7. Goin' home, my baby. Goin' home, my baby. Goin' home, to see my baby. Our baby, how good. My baby, be good. I'm goin' home, my baby. Home to see my girl. Alvin Lee Ten Years After - 1966. For breakfast we hit a place called the Egg and I, another place I would recommend. This appears to be a franchise type operation in it's early stages and they would appear to be doing things right from a chain restaurant perspective.
