Default Choose one trip...

If you only had one ride to take.... where would it be? I'd love to make the trip to Daytona on Skullit one year. I've been there during my crotch rocket days, but that was with it on a trailer.

Hey Sean... Any place in particular you would like to see in the Northwest? I'm thinking that a ride through Yellowstone and Yosemite would be awesome on a bike. I know it's not the NW, but anything west of the mighty Mississip' is a trip for me. I hear the California coast is a "must" bike ride, so maybe someday I'll get there.

Every state in the USA, and take about 6 months to do it.

Regards,

From Tennessee to the California coast. I'd like to take a month and take in the sites along the way. I have a couple of buddies who did this a couple of years ago.

The Rocky Mountains, no question. From southern CO to Canada. Been to Erope, Africa, South America, all 48 continental states. Nothing beats the Rockies.

Other areas will have stretches of roads that are truly spectacular. Maybe better, maybe worse, depending on your taste. Blue Ridge Highway and Hwy-1 are prime examples. But these are relativly shorts stretches; 2-3 days and you're done. In the Rockies, it would takes weeks to cover all the roads worth covering. I've been here 10 years, and still havn't seen all the roadways I want to see.
