Traveling the country w/ my Honda NS50 in tow

Hi all,

I'll be traveling the country with my Honda NS50 in tow. I'm a tour manager and the band I am currently with had a show in Nashville and I was able to scoop up my bike and put it in the trailer. I'm looking for route ideas in the cities below. I typically want to stay within a 30-40 mile radius from the venue. I would love to meet/ride with people too. I generally get to a city between 7a-10a and typically leave early in the morning (midnight - 2a).

I would love to hear any ideas and comments and I hope to meet some of you along the way. Cheers!

Also not a huge fan of Magic Man, but that might just be me getting old. I live in zwolle, about 150miles north of Maastricht

Louisville tomorrow night!

You gotta at least go through Cherokee park, you'll probably get lost, it's cool even the locals do.

I enjoy riding down Southern Parkway and then up into Iroquois Park as well.

River road, through downtown. Maybe cross the second street bridge and go along the Ohio River Scenic route on the Indiana side because the view of the city is awesome from over there.

@ash, thanks for the heads up! I'll probably hit those spots up around noon tomorrow if you and any other bandits are around. It's in the middle of the work day so I don't expect you guys will be avail.

Got out in Louisville today. Went through Cherokee Park and around Bardstown area, with a stop to see my bud Justin Townes Earle, his wife and dog Gunnar. Met Matthew at Retro Wrench too. Good dude.

Tried to ride in Chicago yesterday but it sucks so hard to ride in those streets.

Indianapolis tomorrow. Anyone have suggestions where I should go?
