Last week, while on a trip from Cedar Rapids to Chicago, I had a very interesting visit at the headquarters in Franklin Grove. The folks there were very informative and helpful.<\/p>\n<p>I have an interest in the old highway for two reasons: First, in 1997 my father and I drove his 1912 REO across Canada, re-creating the first trans-Canada Auto trip. Here is a link to our website about that trip:<BR><A href=\"http:\/\/wolfe.vsb.bc.ca\/autotour\">http:\/\/wolfe.vsb.bc.ca\/autotour<\/A><\/p>\n<p>It was on this trip that I caught &#8220;the bug&#8221; for researching and travelling original highways.<\/p>\n<p>Second, I am seeking information on a 1913 Motorcycle trip that followed the Lincoln Highway route. The rider&#8217;s name was Carl Stearns (Stevens?) Clancy and he was completing the first ever around the world motorcycle trip. If you have any contacts who may have information about this trip, I&#8217;d like to hear about them. It is my dream to re-create this trip on my own 1913 Henderson motorcycle in 2013. Perhaps it could be a part of the Lincoln Highway centennial celebrations.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a link to my page seeking info about Clancy&#8217;s trip:<BR><br \/>\n<A href=\"http:\/\/duetsoftware.ca\/pf\/clancy\">http:\/\/duetsoftware.ca\/pf\/clancy<\/A><\/p>\n<p>Thanks again for the help of your organization. We enjoyed our visit to Iowa and Illinois and will be returning &#8211; hopefully with my 1913 Henderson motorcycle!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Check out Todd Harley&#8217;s blog with pics of old restored gas stations:<br \/>\n<A href=\"http:\/\/groups.msn.com\/ToddsHarleyPix\/oldgasstations.msnw\">http:\/\/groups.msn.com\/ToddsHarleyPix\/oldgasstations.msnw<\/A><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wayne Senville has a new blog about his US 50 travels.
