Norm Nelson's 2021 Cannonball Run

Welcome Team 58 Cannonball Enthusiasts!!

Are you ready for the 2021 Cannonball and Rob Goetz's great daily updates of Team 58's journey from Sault Sainte Marie, on the Canadian Border to Brownsville, on the Mexican Border?  Join us on the most challenging and exciting vintage motorcycle event in the world....THE 2021 CANNONBALL MOTORCYCLE ENDURANCE RALLY!!!


Steady Freddy, Norm's 1911 Reading Standard single that he rode in the 2016 Cannonball,  stands proudly in the Barber Museum in Birmingham, Alabama, and Norm will ride another 1911 Reading Standard single in this year's Cannonball.   Norm named his new RS "Franklin Freddy" in honor of one of his dad Fred's favorite cities, Franklin, NC.  Franklin Freddy is an identical twin to Norm's first RS and is powered by a 500cc single cylinder side valve engine with belt drive.  


Norm, his wife Tresia, Jack and Sheila Wright from Conyers, GA, and Jack Blankenship from St. Augustine, FL, will be on Team 58's road team.  Steve Pennington, from Ormond Beach, FL, is preparing the engine and chassis for this year's Cannonball.  Team 58 is fortunate to have received engine and chassis help from John Snead, Joe Gimpel, Michael Lange, and Billy Lane.  Norm's RS will sport an improved crank pin and stronger cylinder and head. 


It costs about 20,000 to compete in the Cannonball, and I am asking my friends and supports to contribute toward that amount by joining us on Team 58! Please join our GoFundMe site and be a part of Team 58's incredible journey!!

$25- You will receive daily email updates during Norm's Cannonball journey.
