Here's how you do it. When I first saw this pic of the Everly Bros. back in the early 60's I knew there were two things I would have to own sometime in my life. A Gibson J-200 and a Harley-Davidson. By 1967 I had the Harley and by 1969 I had the Gibson. Oh what a lucky man I was.

yeah you would want to cover up that guitar in plastic if you were going to try to put it in your saddlebag, if it rained a great way to ruin a guitar.

WAIT! Everyone keeps telling me travelling by bike is about the ride, not the destination... now YOU'RE TELLING ME IT'S ABOUT WHAT I DON'T BRING???
