If you ask ME if you can get there from here most likely I'll say Keep going straight, over the bridge to the first light, turn left, next light, left, 1,2,3,4, FIVE lights turn right, go to the end of that road it will be on your left at that light!........

Ask someone on a BMW or FJR 1300 or one of them Exotic Euro bikes and they'll bring up weather radar, then start punching in coordinates to their GPS and hand you a map after a few minutes.

When you ask somebody on a GoldWing you better not be hungry cause it's gonna go like this. Continue on this road you'll pass the Italian restaurant and Gino's deli, just beyond is a Seafood restaurant, turn left, go to the Chinese Buffet / Sushi Bar and turn left, keep going north past the Mexican Restaurant and TGI Fridays, when you see Red Lobster turn right, stay on that road past the breakfast place and Wendys, keep going till you see the deli on the right and the Ice Cream stand, turn left.

Try asking someone on a Harley and you're gonna get, keep going till you see a little bar on the right side, past that to the light and turn left, there's gonna be hot dog stand there with a chick in a bikini, go to the next light just past the cemetary turn left, you'll see a couple bars in the shopping center and a big topless bar, keep going straight past the big gas station, there's a pub right before it, go a couple more miles to the Boulevard, there's a Burger King and KFC Buffet there, turn right, you'll see three bars close together on the left in a strip center and a Mom&Pop's restaurant, go to the end of that road and just past Harpers Pub it will be on your left.

Am I pretty close here?......lol

yup, definitely, Jay

when I would ride with the local Goldwingers, the most prominent patch on their gear says, "no buffet too far"

in Mississippi, before Zumo, I'd ask a local at a Patriot Guard funeral cemetary in the middle of the piney woods, how do I get to the interstate ???

answer went something like this:

go up this (gravel) road about a mile till you see the brown & red barn... go a little ways past and turn left at the barb wire fence

they'll be a pasture along your right

when you come to a wooden feed trough half full of water, go a little ways and turn right

you have a meadow on your left...look for the big oak tree with 4 big branches pointing up in the air

go past it a ways and turn right

when you see the cow grazing after awhile...

ordered my Zumo as soon as I got home

still don't know how I found the interstate

only knew it was late in the day and to go into the sun which was westward

figured I'd have to hit the slab eventually...

let's ride safe and be careful out there,

Mike in Nawlins'

I'm not certain the FJR depiction is accurate. Directions for me run to the " go west until you hit Colorado, then loop south to the border, then west to the Pacific. Up the coast till you hit the big mountains and then go east until you run into the Atlantic. You can't miss it..."

 
The last directions i recived was follow me . And he was on a FJR
