Default Sprinter Van to NY - Take Harley...

I will be returning a Sprinter Van from Colorado back to NY around May 7th. Since the wife "told" me to do it for our daughter, who borrowed it, I thought of loading the Electra Glide in the back and riding / touring my way home.

Not sure where to stop on the way but I did find a few events happening in May. Myrtle Beach 11-20, Sandusky Ohio 26-4, Red River NM 24-28. Any other suggestions?

I didn't hear a time line to get home by.....

wife won't go with you ?
mine won't ride on a bike at all so i've taken a few trips without her , she's taken a few with girl friends and it's worked out really well . of course it's so easy to keep in touch now it's hardly like you're apart at all
getting back together is nice too and sometimes we take vacations together , it's nice to be able to do both .

Wife only like short trips and she just returned from a vacation Saturday. I agree that we do both, some together and more apart since we have different ideas of a vacation.
