- Myself and Carson (CountryCoder) decided to make a somewhat of an aimless road trip through Mississippi and Alabama on our old Harley Davidsons; Myself on my 1998 Evo Electra Glide and Carson on his 1995 Sportster 1200. Decided to visit CMA's state rally again and spent the rest of the weekend traveling through Alabama and Mississippi just to find the town of Waterloo; a town that we knew nothing about; just an excuse to go somewhere.

I agree, seeing a guy road tripping with a Sportster is very cool and nostalgic, puts the adventure back into motorcycling. When my brother first returned after fighting in the jungles of Vietnam, the first thing he did was buy a 1968 XLCH and strap his army duffle bag to a home made sissy bar and road trip it 1400 miles.
Totally righteous!
I used to go all over on my sporty but I had a small wind screen that helped a lot. Fun video just proves you don't need a 20000 to 50000 bagger to have fun.
That's the truth
Road trips on Sportsters should inspire all of us that "YES YOU CAN" Get out there🇺🇲
I agree!
Not a thing wrong with this video Tramp, any adventure at all is worth your time to take us along for the ride and let us enjoy it to. Thanks a lot, look forward to the next one.
Thank you, Robbie. I appreciate that.
A traveling video is always good! Nothing better than a motorcycle on the open road.
Agreed!
It was still a ride to where the road leads😁👍
Anyone just starting out on the road with their scooter do several of these overnight road trips. You'll find out what you do and don't need in a hurry. It will always be cold somewhere, you will get wet and the trip will never turn out to be exactly how you thought it would be. When I started on the road their was no cell phone, no air mattress, no GPS just rode by the seat of your pants and fixed whatever needed fixing. That's the adventure. My first long road trip in the early 70's was 4500 miles with a buddy of mine from Wisconsin to Tempe AZ to visit a friend I played football with at ASU. Hit four days of rain on the way out. We spent a lot of time at the laundry drying all our stuff. Hit Shamrock TX and never had to run in the rain again that trip. We had a '69 sporty and a 66 triumph 650. We bungeed everything on like your buddy did. Spent several days in Tempe and had a young lady show us around the city, she was very nice. The day we left to go to the grand canyon and up through the rockies she said you probably have heard about my Dad and I said probably not. She said, well you have heard of U-Haul haven't you and I said yes and she says my Daddy owns that. Another road not taken. Did enjoy your video, Corey. Later bro.
Thanks for sharing that, Everett. I tend to like to study the map rather than using a GPS. Plus a GPS doesn't look as good with coffee stains on it either.
@@SaddleTrampTVTrue. It warms my heart that there are so many younger people that have the same exhilaration about motorcycles that I have. My oldest son who is an officer in the Navy has got it.
I love doing day trips on my 1999 Sportster with almost 400,000 miles on her. Of course in Florida it's thousand miles just to get the hell out of the state. Cannot wait till the orange blossoms when they are in bloom we have the sweetest smelling are on Earth hands down. My British stuff is all kick-start only now that is old. I always consider a motorcycle with an electric start to be a modern motorcycle. Ride safe.
No shame in the Sportster game, my 5 speed 1200 takes me everywhere without issue, running forward controls and some pegs extended forward gets it done for me. Great job Bro , hi to Carson . See ya on the next one 👍
Heck yeah!
Hey Wayne.... That's what I need to add is some additional extended forward pegs and I'd be set!
Hey Tramp great video. I just embarked on quite a solo journey of my own. On 6/26/22 my wife passed away after a long battle with cancer. I spent the next month rebuilding my old 1996 FLHT 80" Evo. To cleans my soul I left on Aug 1 bound for Michigan via Sturgis SD. I was out on the road for 60 days and 7210 miles doorstep to doorstep. Epic journey I only wish Diana was there with me. Met CMA members Jim and Belinda High from Kenney IL along the way and thank them for giving me some direction and blessing myself and my machine. Thanks Tramp
Man... Sorry to hear that, Mike. Every now and then, my Mrs asks me what I'm going to do if something ever happens to her. What you're doing right now is always my response to her.
I'll never forget my road trip from Florida to the Smokey Mountain National Park on a 2001 883 Sportster. I had it loaded down like the Beverly Hillbillies. The best part was smiling at the "bikers" towing their $30k touring bikes or the ones that stop under every overpass when a drop a rain is felt. I'm getting older now and have a hip replacement in my future, but I plan to repeat the trip again on my 1999 EVO powered Heritage Softail. Keep up the great content and stay safe!
Thank you for the invite as I had a great time riding up there and then riding over to AL. Good job on the video as well.
Hey thanks for coming along. Lets do it again some time!
@@SaddleTrampTV definitely will!
Meandering aimlessly is a beautiful n fortunate thing...so good for the soul...thanks for sharing the ride the vibes n all...ain't life on the ol iron horse something🎲🎶
Best engine Harley built .. I just switched from a twin cam back to a EVO .. no computer except the ignition reason why I switched back .. do it on a shovelhead, I did it for years on a finch chopper all around this country, tramped all over .. slept in the bike and next to it .. once in a while I'd talk myself into a bed , ahh to be young again
It's getting to be good riding weather!
Got that right! Taking advantage while it's here.
What better way to spend part of my Sunday evening but with The Tramp !
Thank, man!
Your're in good company. Met Carson in Daytona - really nice guy. I bought my sporty from a 21yr old 6ft 4" guy who hated to admit he was too tall for it . At 5ft 3" it fits me perfectly.
Hi Saddle Tramp and your friend, thank you for your video, just great .....
Glad you enjoyed it!
if you ever run across Uncle Rays Garlic potato chips try those. I rode my Shovel about 30 yrs most of it was just a lets go thing no motorhomes no sleeping bags tents cell phones so on and so forth met a lot of great people had a lot of fun and Didn't get arrested that often.
Road a old iron head sportser (1974) for over 100,000 mi. all over the country . on a 1988 softtail now that I bought new , ride it wherever I want to go in this great country .
Heck yeah, man!
Love the road'n videos Tramp thanks. You didn't miss much from the CMA meeting either....
Right on, Rooster. Thanks so much.
Love it
Out on the road and taking her easy
a video is better than no video
Where's the old bikes ?
PANHEADS FOREVER......
Y'all stay safe out there my brothers 🙏
dude good video. didn't try to make it into a movie production or about yourself as a movie star. down to earth old school video. keep them coming.
Thanks, man! Just trying to keep it real and entertaining at the same time.
I rode to Waterloo this year in the trail of tears
Cool beans, man!
That’s was a cool ride, with good company. Thank you
Sure thing, man!
Always good stuff brother enjoy you're videos keep them coming ride safe my friend
Thanks, you too!
That rain sounded like popcorn.
Much louder on the roof of a tent or canopy.
What a transition... from Amish bread to Gypsy travelin' music :) And the "waking up face" footage is obviously as real as it gets to anybody who ever slept on the ground. If you guys ever go on another aimless road trip through northwest Alabama, you can go to Natural Bridge State Park and see the longest natural bridge east of the Mississippi.
It is definitely in the middle of nowhere! If it's still open, you can go "fill your gizzard at the Slick Lizard" in Nauvoo near Slick Lizard Road.... This was an enjoyable video, for sure, Tramp. Keep 'em comin'!
Thanks, Tommy! I'm gonna look that up. Who knows? Might end up on the agenda.
@@SaddleTrampTV There's a nice scenic route winding along through the hills, but I can't remember the road number. I had to do some work up in that area before and always thought that it was great scooter riding country, but I never did go back. It is somewhere around one of the streams that they dammed up to build Lewis Smith Lake. It's beautiful country, or was 20 years ago.
Meandering aimlessly is a beautiful n fortunate thing...so good for the soul...thanks for sharing the ride the vibes n all...doing it on an older iron horse adds something raw n spicy 🎶
It really is!
I enjoyed the video. I love Rays bbq chips.
Looking good man!
Hey it's all about the ride.
I have ridden 250mi. To drink a beer.
Lol... All you need is an excuse.
Was good to meet you again at the rally. Even saw my bike in the background once. Safe travels and God bless!
Likewise, man!
My husband and I are moving south. I really hope that we run into you and the Mrs out riding sometime. It would be nice to cross paths and meet you guys. Great videos! Thank you
Cool beans! Where abouts?
While your in Mississippi head down to the Crossroads. 😎
The Crossroads is the intersection of Highway 61 and Highway 49 in Clarksdale, Coahoma County, Mississippi.
According to legend, Robert Johnson reputedly sold his soul to the Devil in exchange for his prowess on guitar. 😶
A ride to nowhere. Be safe out there!
tramp has a video of him traveling to the crossroads. it's pretty kool check it out it's on his channel.
Done that already, but would love to go again.

fun daya roaming around looking for trouble! cool ! 🎉
A good time it was.
It came out good. Just chilled 🙂
Thanks, man. Appreciate it.
Tupelo Honey! got a town called Natches Washington on the way two the mountain's
looks like I'll get my bike finished by the Frist of the year!
good video as always!
He said this town may have a population of 10 😂 😊
Fun watching your travels, appreciate you putting the videos together. Always worth a watch!
Thanks, man. That means a lot.
Short but good
Again a very good and entertaining viideo. And very recognizable, as i did a roadtrip last weekend and it started to rain heavily at night as well. Fortunately my tent held up and i stayed warm and dry. Hope to see the next one soon . 👍🤘
That's all part of it. At times, you gotta roll with the punches.
Felt like I was along for the ride…great views and video 👊😎👊
Good deal, MJ. Thanks
Heck, I liked this video. The only issue I have is you said your riding an old 1998 bike, I ride a 1998 bike. ride safe my friend.
Doesn't matter the destination, it's the memories and ride,
Right!
Loved the video. This is my kind of riding, on a bagger of course, 😂! Keep the videos coming. I look forward to each one, 😀! Stay safe, 🙏🏻.
Glad you found it entertaining. Thank you, Bobby.
I dig the upbeat klezmer music after you left the Amish bakery.
I just felt like throwing that in there for the heck of it. lol
love the opening shadow shot on the highway cool. great video 👍370
Thanks!
Wow Cory you are hanging out with that CountryCoder again! I only ride a sportster and they do great camping. I put 20k miles on mine last year and had a blast! Carson is a little taller than I but he will adapt to really enjoy that ride. As for tent camping I used to be completely miserable as a side sleeper - my hips were killing me until I learned to roll forward slightly toward my bent knees and distribute my weight more on my legs. I can wake in the mornings rested and pain free now! Why did it take me so long to adapt? Yall ride safe and catch you guys somewhere down the road!
P.S. It is always safer and more enjoyable to travel with a partner so I am glad to see you guys running together. Keep those great videos coming!
Nothing wrong with a trip for no reason at all. No particular destination either. Just the man, machine and the Road. 👍
Yep!
Good video. Some of the best times are when you go and just decide on the fly where you ride. Keep the videos coming.
For sure!
Cool video, Saddle Tramp!
Thanks, my friend. Always good to hear from you.
I've put SG air shocks on the rear of my Sportster 1200C. It rides better than a newer Lowrider S. Sportsters are very underrated!
Great video as always. Any trip on a bike is a good trip.
I am a winner I know you
On one right now. The mrs and I have pitched a tent in the Birmingham area.
All ya need is a destination!! Ride safe!!
Yep... An excuse of any way, shape, or form.
Actually a very cool video. Thanks!
Sure thing! Thank YOU!
Great video Cory. You don't give yourself enough credit.
Great video, make me want to get out and take a trip!
Hey, Thanks! Do it!
this video turned out pretty dam good actually , you did some great editing to make it interesting to watch as always👍
Glad you enjoyed it
That banana nut bread is good, he bought us some a couple weeks ago at pitf.
LOL. As much as i travel, if i find a good food joint i gotta tell everyone and let them experience it.
The raccoons thanked him kindly as well. Lol
@@SaddleTrampTV 😂😂
This video was amazing 🤩 be good to yourselves
Thanks!
I live in Tishomingo county and never heard about any large klan presence. Waterloo is a good place to ride if they would get the trace opened back up.
Keep up the videos, thanks for sharing.
I guess it's the media blowing things out of proportion then. My bad.
Remember what happened to them in Klan country in Easy Rider?? Watch your back!!
Scary times back then.
Hey Tramp Nice video, Nice ride, saludos from México My friend, hope one day soon I can drive around your place.
Saludos Compadre!!!
Right on, Amigo!
Thanks for stopping by.I ever can get out to Mississippi.maybe we can ride together
That would be cool, man!
@@SaddleTrampTV thanks for the reply
Awesome can't wait O guess I have to MLH&R #ST=( STAND TALL)
Yup 👌👍😎
Knees in the breeze
Dang, $3.17 for gas? That's smokin'!
Sometimes you just have to see where the road takes you 👍👍🇨🇱
Know what you mean, man!
Perhaps the next sporty project you're getting ready to start should be a extended springer front and swingarm frame built for weekend getaways when the wife stays home
Perhaps
Enjoyed going along on the road trip, even if in spirit only. The bagger is perfect for road trips and I'm sure your lower back appreciates it.
Yeah it does. Thanks for being around, man.
Hey Man! You need to quit apologizing all the time and just make make YOUR SHOW.......YOUR WAY. We all dig what you are doing an will keep watching what you put out. OK? Ride Hard - Live Brave!!!!
I appreciate that
Tramp weather and small towns are all the excitement we need sorry to hear about the Klan we are all brothers and sisters
Agreed, man. Agreed
Enjoyed the video Tramp
Hey, thanks man!
That was Pretty Good !!
Thanks!
Cory, you look good when your out on the road enjoying life. Love the views and now I'm in the mode for a ride myself. On my last ride and camp out I couldn't figure out why the tent kept hitting me on the head. The next day everyone was talking about the windstorm we'd had. As long as you don't get wet a little rain at night should be good for the soul. Wish I was with you. Maybe some day. Thanks for Sharing!
good stuff!! like always..
Thanks!
wish I'd known u was in my area. I live down the road from the Tishomingo gas station u was at. Would have loved to meet ya'll. safe travels
Maybe next time
Looked like a fun little adventure!
It sure was, man! Got a tent pitched right now somewhere in the Birmingham area.
Awesome!!
Hey Tramp , nothing wrong with the video any time you can get out and enjoy the out doors and ride is great thanks for taking us along a road trip can always be an adventure stay safe out there
Appreciate it, Jimmy. Thanks
Well my first premier.
Thanks for stoppin in!
@@SaddleTrampTV In 2002 I sold a 98 FLSTS to get a new 02 FLSTS with a TC. Then onto several other HDs till this year. I bought myself a 70th birthday present, another 1998 FLSTS in May. Did a little work to it to make road worthy, then on my birthday, left Indiana and did some two lane traveling out to Utah for some red rock riding. One of the best, trouble free trips in years. Took a few years but I got back in the right mind set again, its all about the ride and not just a destination! I enjoy your videos, thanks.
Cool. Small town USA stuff always pleases.
It does indeed
Everyone always wants to talk bikes when you roll up to a gas stop.
So I've found that to be the case.
I really don't need an excuse to ride...... But I'll take one anytime.
There ya go!
You can't go wrong with good burger and Fry's.
love your vids!
Thanks, man!
Well it turned out good
Thank you, John!
Like the cross patch bro. Good clean content. Dec 9th in PA and going for a burn on the 99 ultra.
Have fun!
Nice video. Thanks
Sure thing! Thank YOU!
I liked the video alot 👍
Good deal!
kicked me off the front porch too. can't repeat what i told the bizch here!!!!!!!!! would like to hook up with you in future!!!!!
Ole evo,,,,,, probably the best motor Harley ever made….. won’t win any races stock, but will run forever
You got that right!
Y'all should have went to the coon dog cemetery or the rattlesnake saloon just over in Alabama
Hey Georgia, Mike here aka Bosco Dog
Looking good, it's all about the ride man
I have ridden 250mi to drink a beer.
@@boscodog4358 hey bosco dog good to hear from you
Hate I missed you, live in Plantersville ms, which is where the state park is
Sorry I commented , Mississippi isn’t as you say, good people every where, let old dogs lay my friend
Wow, we were pretty to ya.
Ótimo domingo irmão!
Você também!
Great 😉
Thanks!
Just checking on you... Seen your video where you had the oil leak and you took off the back tire... just making sure you put it back on correctly and didn't kill yourself. don't know how many times I have see a guy mess with his back wheel and not put it back on right only to have him wobble down the road and wreck.
Triple check that back tire.
All good here. Thanks.
Should have eat with the Amish, killer food. If you are ever in Kidron OH go across from the hardware store and go downstairs at the market and eat there. Hope y'all stayed dry😎
Thanks, Chris! Noted! We came out just fine.
