I hope you stop to see Mt. Rushmore. Definitely a "can't miss" place. Incredible.
Thanks for the offer! Glad she enjoyed it so far. More to come. Next is Minnesota in a day or so. Can't wait.Holy cow never had the uly do so bad on mileage! They do work hard pushing a wind especially with all you've got loaded.
Read through your journey to the wife even she was interested/excited. She even asked if I'd offered you a place to stay lol (which you're welcomed to of course if you drop south). I'm standing in the shed looking at my uly while it rains, drinking a beer of course, so in am envious of you out riding your wheels off!
Not yet. Too cold or windy so far. Chance of rain too. I might start on my next leg from here.I love the updates!
Very inspiring trip.
One day, when the kids are grown, I hope to be able to slow down and really enjoy my motorcycling!
Extremely inspiring thread.
Have you done any roadside, KOA or state park camping during your travels? I may have missed a post if you did.
Stay safe! And keep the updates coming
Good suggestion. Ill save the deer for deer season.Just a suggestion here, I have to travel north jersey for work, mostly in the early hours dawn and dusk, just when the deer are on the move, I have found that tooting the horn every two to three hundred yards, seems to get them off the road to where they feel safe. I see them on the sides of the road but not on it, been doing it for twenty years now.
Haha. I'll steer clear of both!Dang Deer are so skiddish, honking if you do not see them is probably a great idea, or if they are so far ahead of you when you honk. I ride with a group that has a leader that likes to honk at deer when we are upon them, and not sure why, the dear do a u-turn in broad day light when they here the horn.
Also do not ride in between cows that are all over the highway, I tried it last month in Arkansas, seemed like a good idea since there was at least 8 or more feet in between them. I was ok between the first and second cow, but then the 3rd cow and the few after that started twirling, kicking, and flailing their big heads around. Scared the crap out of me and I swear I had cow lip prints on my windscreen. Be safe!
