Default Traveling to Yellowstone

Is there a place on this forum to see if others might be heading from Massachusetts towards Yellowstone in mid-July. I'm headed out to meet family in Jackson Hole, WY. I can ride it alone but could get kinda boring through all those cornfields. Perhaps there's a spot on these forums where people see whose going where and join up?

Hey Gene,

My wife and I did that trip last June-July. It was fantastic, we hit Colorado, Utah, Wyoming, Montana and So Dakota among other less notable states. We are actually heading back out that way in Aug. with her bro and sis-in-law. Unfortunately we will be in a cage. Anyway, you are in for a treat. I would suggest trying to post this in the road trips section... https://www.hdforums.com/forumid_213/tt.htm people there may or may not be a little more helpful. Good luck and have fun.


Jeff

+1 me and the bride did it 2 years ago from Va and are doing it again this year. Darn near a religious experience, different world out there and my $.02 is that everybody ought to try it at least once.

I live south of Indy. My son and I are wanting to take a trip this June to Yellowstone, but only have a week.

Is this "do-able"?

A reasonable ride from Indianapolis would be three days each way.

If your going to go, you need two weeks or you will be disapointed.
