My 2016 Cross Country Ride
In the final phases of planning for my 2nd cross country ride. This year we will be riding from Portland, OR to home in CT. Our plan is to hit as many national parks as as we can. Down to 2 riders from our last year's 4 rider cross country group. Our bikes ship west Monday followed by us later this month. The plan is 17 days, meeting up with another group of friends in TN to ride the Blue Ridge Parkway north on the way back home. Not sure if this link will work but we have a rough route as we are trying to keep things open to change if we see something we want to do along the way.

Last years trip hit Crater Lake, everything in and around the black hills of SD and north to the great lakes. With that out of the way we are looking to go south out of Montana to the Grand Canyon and east from there. We will be camping in the National Parks and anywhere else the scenery is nice. Any thought on things that we missed? There is so much to see in the country trying to make the best of the 17 days!!

Good luck on your trip. We are living in Danbury right now, and moving to Killington VT to start retirement on July 1st, and we have a 46 day cross country trip from Vermont to SF and back starting on July 7th, so I know your anticipation. Each day at work feels like a month. We are hitting several of the National Parks also
