The Big Trip Begins!

| | Comments (1) | TrackBacks (0)
Well as luck would have it the trip Karen and I had been planning since we rode west had the time table pushed up. While on a "temporary" furlough from work it made sense for me to sneak the trip in now and burn off some vacation time. Karen really wanted to go and I would have loved to have had her join me but it just wasn't in the cards this time around. I'm still packing so i'll keep this entry brief. The trip leaves from Marysville, WA tomorrow and heads north to the Canadian boarder then southwest to the coast in Washington and follows the PCH (Pacific Coast Highway) all the way to Mexico. The route home is set to go through Las Vegas, NV and then up to the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah. I'll ride around the eastern shore of the Great Salt Lake and head for home. Since this is largely an unplanned vacation the budget is tight so I'll be camping most, if not all, of the way. Here is a shot of the route, it's roughly 3,800 miles so we'll get those wings stretched out pretty good. I hope to complete and entry each day, internet connections and gods willing. I may have to compose entries and upload them in batches as resoaurces become available. I would love to hear your comments and suggestions so use the comment link to reach me.
