RV Living Free Boondocking Downtown Nashville Urban Camping
RV Living Free Boondocking Downtown Nashville Urban Camping
Spent 2 nights at a Travel Center Truck stop right downtown Nashville. Take a tour of the city by bike, but was still a little chilly so decided to head south…
FYI if you come through again, bikes on the road in TN ride with the traffic.
WOW that’s great!! The home of the peach!! I don’t know to much about that city, but I think a little research would be a great idea!! You’re finally living your dream and that’s awesome!! Keep vlogging I love watching your videos:) Julie
If I were to visit Tennessee I would want to visit Sun Studio in Memphis where Elvis (and a bunch of others) recorded all his early hits. But I guess Memphis is WAY out of your way if you’re heading to Florida.
Justin, you are going to have to plan a little better otherwise you are going to miss a lot of sights on your trip. Every State you enter, stop at the tourist information or welcome centre and pick up maps and information on thing to see in that state. This is all free. If you don’t plan on things you would like to see you will be wasting a lot of gas.
Think about following part of the Blue ridge parkway if it open in North Carolina.
Just a little advise from a fellow Ontario guy who has done a lot of travelling in the USA in my class B
PS. Pedal with the ball of you foot, not your arch. It will give you more power and will save your knees.
Enjoy.
Have a question : Now that your on the Road. Is your Van still Winterized ?? It looks like I have now got me a Motorhome and I will be hitting the road on and off till I’m out of my Apartment June 1st.. I really no nothing about RV Living but its so exciting to learn. So I know while I’m in warm climate I don’t need the Winterize but heading back I will. So I guess I’ll keep it Winterized till Spring . So was just Curious if yours is still set up for cold weather. Later. Excited about both of our Futures. Now that I think about it. I better have a Hot Cup of Tea since Kentucky has snow on the ground this morning and it was 21 degrees and weather says it feels like 7. Wow 🙂
justin, head down to padre island in tx. I think? lots of other utube rs are there on the sand,wish I could go.
You did a great job!
If you like history, The Hermitage (President Jackson’s home) is really good.
It’s been a long journey for you to get this travel adventure underway. Glad to see that you are finally getting to enjoy some of the fruits of your labour. Safe and Happy travels.
Awesome video!
Good to see you finally on the road! My girlfriend and I are currently in the process of converting a school bus into an RV to live within full-time and will be starting January 2017. Can’t wait man. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed following your journey so far and can’t wait to see where it takes ya.
Nice video. We need to go an shoot some vid there ourselves.
Just a suggestion for your safety – ride with the flow of traffic. It’s much safer for you that way (mainly because cars will notice you and not get confused/annoyed by you)
Hey Justin, As a cyclist, I would be remiss if I didn’t point out that when riding on the road/street it is safer, and in most cases the law, to ride with traffic not against it. Just want you to be safe my friend.
Glad to see you finally out on the road. Wanderlust Estate is another Van Dweller (a couple) near your location and also heading to Florida, be cool if you could meet up with him. Good luck, Jon
lowes and most Wal-Mart’s have free WiFi
Looks like the trip is going great so far. Welcome to the south!
and it is shorter , and safer to get to downtown.
Great video… It’s fun joining you on your journey… Looking forward to the next update…
If you like music that is very good, but not over touristy, try The Listening Room in Nashville.

You should call the border police and let them know where your at… lol… j/k.. enjoy Tenn.
That Nashville TA has some of the classiest lot lizards in the south. LOL
Been to that truck stop many times. I think it was flooded a few years ago & they rebuilt it. Be careful-they don’t call it Crashville for nothing. Lots of really bad drivers there. Go check out the Ryman Auditorium & also the Opryland Hotel. Have fun!
Looking good Justin, enjoy your travels and be safe.
Great video. ..thanks for sharing 🙂
Ryman theatre is a must do in Nashville- must do! It is Nashville! Find Eskimo Brothers band at night!
DUDE! Awesome updates! Already in that far south? You’re moving through the states quick.
Great video …. very well done!
I think the mobile hbs are in your area. great video.
Great video,stay safe!
just in a van enjoy every moment of this road trip a wish I can do that. maybe one..f day for now I’m putting everything together with plenty time ahead.find me on Facebook pastor Arzaba take care
Good to see you exploring! Looking forward to seeing more! Take care xxx
That TA is surrounded by homeless people and whores.FYI, it is against the law in the USA to ride your bike against the flow of traffic.
Well your Adventure has finally begun. A lot a work goes into these Video’s. ThanksI was sitting here drinking a cup of hot tea when you said you was going to get you some tea. Amazing
Great shots of my hometown! But you should really ride a bike WITH the traffic; you were lucky not to get run off the road! Safe travels!
Good downtown street view. Do you use the truck stop showers?
Very nice. Whoever was doing the shooting was very good. It made me feel like I was there too without leaving the comfort of my living room.
Nice to an English pub in Nashville…LOL
Looks like a great place! Lots of fun and music!
You were at Walmart on Powell Ave 🙂
Are you planning to travel out west?
if you go in front of the stadium, and go to the other side you will see the river walk. its a bridge just for pedestrians
Been there 3 times and always had a fun time. Loved just walking around downtown and seeing the site.
Loved reading about your stay at TA in Nashville. We are headed there this fall. Did you have to reserve a space, or did they limit how long you could stay?
Great vlog I didn’t know you were in Nashville I always wanted to go to the Ryman Auditorium to see some country singer stars. Have you went yet?
You’re really doing it!
You coming to Atlanta? 🙂
I’m interested on how you have your bike mounted. Doesn’t appear to be a hitch mount. Looks like that would work for me. What kind/brand. Thanks
Be careful in truck stops and make sure you don’t take a spot that some trucker will need to use. Their vehicles are 75′ long and they are restricted to how many hours they can drive. Most truck stops are very crowded at night and trucks stop everywhere.
Thanks. Going to look into a trunk mount. Don’t know why I didn’t think of that. I’m getting a hitch cargo box. If I have enough clearance to mount the bike I’ll be a happy camper. Opening back doors not a big thing for my rig.
