The whole idea for this trip started on our way back from the Minuteman 1000 LD Rally last June. Larry and I joked, "Where are we going next year?" and the joked response was, "I dunno...how 'bout Deal's Gap?" and then the planning started.
A few things happened between our return and the full fledged trip planning. I crashed Barney, and ended up with a broken leg, road rash and a broken nose. I wasn't sure that Meagan was going to let me go. She still hasn't said "Yes", but she did give me acceptable dates for going. So, basically, she hasn't said no either.
So, here we are, just about two and a half weeks to departure. I'll be riding my Vulcan 900 this year, so it'll be a little more interesting packing than last year. No big deal, we adapt and overcome. Its going to be an interesting trip. We're going to try and couch surf a bit, camp a bit and avoid Hotels/Motels if at all possible. The goal of the trip is to burn some gas, see some sights and generally have a good time. If we meet fellow Motorcycle Enthusiasts along the way, even better.
Below is our route down. We still have decided on which way we're coming back, but the mention of a side trip into Washington D. C. has been mentioned, as well as a Photo Op in Times Square NYC! Dunno how brave we'll be.
Stay tuned to the Blog, there will be more updates over the next few weeks as the departure get closer and I'll start posting some pics of the bike mods, luggage and equipment we're taking along.
Keepin' the shiny side up...
