Hey, Eric: If you're heading down the River Road make sure to make stops at Grafton, Illinois for the Loading Dock and, more importantly, you must stop at what I think is the best Roadhouse in the World - Fast Eddie's Bon Air in Alton, Illinois. The River Road is fantastic between Grafton and Alton. Enjoy.

Now you have me curious...why?
I spent several months in the Memphis area 32 years ago . I will be riding through there next year. I plan to ride I-40 from Memphis to near Flagstaff on the return trip.

does Sun Records still let people in to look at the studio ? to me that was way more interesting than Graceland , although GL was fun .
we stayed at the place across the road , with the guitar shaped pool (still there ?) .
it was 10 or 12 years ago , dunno how bad the area was , we normally are in our room watching tv by the time it gets dark . didn't get woke up by gunshots or sirens .
we went by car because we were meeting friends who were flying to New Orleans (long before Katrina)
