While some folks like to take the motorcycle out for day trips, returning home at the end of the day, I much prefer to go somewhere. I like to travel - I love Motorcycle Touring. In the States, we have ridden the motorcycles through much of the country - the east coast, from the Hudson Valley up to Maine - the great western states, Colorado up through the coast of Northern California - through the Smokey Mountains, the Adirondack Mountains, the Green Mountains of New Hampshire, the Rockies. I have been amazed by the beauty of this country, while on my motorcycle.
I also recommend Open Road Journey - designed to help motorcyclists find great roads and routes throughout the world using a combination of GPS, interactive maps, and other technologies. They offer routes all over the US so we will appeal to a great deal of motorcyclists.
And, don't be discouraged about touring an area of the country far from where you live. Consider shipping your motorcycle
to your destination, and flying. You save travel time not driving cross country, and you get more time on the motorcycle traveling through a completely different area of the country. Definitely a WIN WIN situation.
Not to be missed: The wonderfully Scenic Roads of West Virginia
Posing By a Really Big Rock, Somewhere in Utah
One of the more memorable trips in the States, the Grand Circle Tour , involved several national parks, some really big rocks, nice sweeping curves, and motorcycling through Utah and Colorado. Share your "Great Road" with Her-Motorcycle
with the details of your road - or route - or area that you think is great for motorcycling.
The USA is, so
vast, and filled with wonderful roads - some scenic, some challenging, some just wonderfully curvy. Let's live vicariously through each other - come on - Share!
