Default I Have a Harley Travel Blog. Who Else Does?

I'm a Harley travel blogger who enjoys sharing my experiences on the road. I've been blogging for the past nine years, but my primary audience has been limited to friends and family. I'm now interested in broadening my reach to include other riders.

This is my first post on HD Forums. Am curious to see what other Harley travel blogs are out there, to get ideas and compare notes. Who else has one?

To see mine, visit:

If you like my blog, you can click on "Follow Blog" and receive my posts via email.

Vroom, vroom.

I do too!

http://biketourwest.blogspot.com

I recorded our two prior trips out West from Maine, 2014 & 2015. Was too lazy to write up our trip last year to Quebec - of course I regret that now!

We're headed West again this year and intend to write up the Blog as we go.

Enjoyed browsing your Blog Gary.

Gary...your blog host has extremely low bandwidth. I gave up waiting for the pics to load. Maybe you need to resize the photos.


Brit Bikers loaded quickly.

Liked your blog a lot, too. Photography is first-rate! How did you find the time to ride for 6 weeks solid?

Thanks for the comment about bandwidth, Mr. Geezer. First time any user has experienced that issue, or at least first time anyone has said anything about it. Will look into it.

Loaded fine for me. Trigeezer probably is still using a 300 baud modem. LOL

I started writing my blog as a way to let my kids / grandkids follow along on our vacations. I use WordPress for it's ease-of-use. I use the basic version so there is no cost involved. It's also been great fun looking back at people and places. Like OP mine is in reverse chronological order. You're welcome to read and let me know what you think.

Very cool! BTW, the OP's blog loaded fine on all pages and I flipped around through the various pages.

It's timely that you posted this. Good friends of my wife's and mine have an RV and post a travel blog when they travel around the country. They are about to leave again and seeing that made me think about doing the same for my motorcycle tours. Now you've really got me thinking. (I usually just post a pic or two on this Road Trips section of the forum and let it go at that.)
