Let me knock on my head 3 times first.... No close calls, no crashes, no tickets.....

crazy weather, bad storms, awesome roads, high winds, Mark got snowed on twice, my clutch failed completely leaving me stuck in Amarillo, TX Motel 6 for 3 days untill parts came in..... GREAT ROAD TRIP will go again in a heartbeat... maybe on a Goldwing this time

Wow, very inspiring. I really want to do this now. Most people don't realize that going on the road by wheels (4 or 2) across the country isn't all that bad if you know how and also a great way to see everything.

Trust me. We had an abundant lack of preparation.... Night before I packed till 5am. Changed oil in the bike till 6am... slept for an hour and went to work ))) Then we hit the road at 2:30pm

Priceless Next time I will plan better ahead, maybe
