Guide to Kentucky Highway Markers (http://kentucky.gov/kyhs/hmdb/CountyMap.aspx)

There isn't much here in the way of maps but if your visiting or living in Kentucky and are interested in historical markers this could be jut what you are looking for.

Does anyone know of others similar to this?

How about something like this.

I have seen other sites in the past that identify gas stations and restaurants at the exits but I don't remember where.

Cheers!

OK, I found the one for I-95 (which I would not ride on a GZ250) but this is what I have been looking for. Now if there was just some of these for the smaller roads.

I was thinking more along the lines of historical marker locations. I never even thought of any thing like this. I have a friend that has a palm program that shows you where these thing are but I never even thought of going to the web for this information. I can see where this could be useful.

Something else I never though of. Looks like this forum is going to turn up lots things that are new to me.

I would not ride on a GZ250!

I've rode mine on I10 a few times. Not the most pleasant experience I ever had but then I do not like riding my GZ250 WOT any where.

Georgia Info (http://www.cviog.uga.edu/Projects/gainfo/gahistmarkers/gamarkerscontents.htm) is a University of Georgia site that contains not just historical marker locations but also contains maps, links to info on other states and lots of other info.

Many of theses are off the beaten path on interesting roads to ride. I like history so why not ride some place that has some historical significance.

[Bill]

Many group rides are either to meet with other riders to talk motorcycles or to meet at a place and have lunch. This is fine and I enjoy the comraderie. However, my wife and I like to spend our own time together riding too and have a purpose/reason/destination for the ride in addition to the enjoyment of being out on the motorcycles.

Visiting places of historical significance would be a good idea. I'm going to have to look into destination of this kind in our general area that would be a nice one or two day ride. Thanks for the idea. :tup:

Cheers!
