Default Laurel, MS Hellfighters

Just made a run down to souther Mississippi. South east side. Above Hattiesville. Crazy store. Common destination joint from what I gather. Bikes, clothes, all kinds of accessories. And the store supports a rehab center. Great run down there from North Arkansas. Good time with an old friend and a new one. Super visits with some of the staff and guys in the rehab.

About 100 miles east/south of the Trace I think. But if you are on that side or along the coast, it might be worth a look. We just talked to so many great folks there. I might be a bit prejudice??

Some of the MS roads could use attention, some were great. Wound our way down on backroads most of the way. I like the sandy hills and creeks with white sand bars in the central part of the state. And the huge river, Ole Miss, I never get tired of looking at. If I didn't have a motorcycle, I would have another boat.

Give em a visit if you are that way.

I second that place. I've purchased 2 bikes there, one about a month ago. Street Glide. They do have a wonderful mission purpose in that they are a Christian based rehabilitation program of sorts. The guys (some, likely not all) working there have all made "questionable choices" in their past and this place trains them, teaches them a transferrable skill set, and holds them accountable. I am not affiliated with them, but a happy repeat customer.

If I'd have known you were going to be in the area, I'd have come by and said hey. Yeah, that's a pretty cool store.

Boy howdy I know I’ve made my share. And then some. That’s a reason I’m so supportive of them and their cause. There’s not a guy I’ve met there that’s not cool, helpful and humble. I guess years working in correctional healthcare and now mental health makes me appreciate their uphill battle(s)

We do all need to ride soon. I’m LOVING my SG 103. L O V I N G it. And a shout out to my wife (who likely will never see this)…as being a kick *** wife! Wouldn’t have gotten the bike or still be riding if it wasn’t for her.
