    Default 22 Days in the saddle...touring America.

    Howdy.

    Tomorrow, I begin a 22-day motorcycle-camping trip through 10 states on my 2010 RT. I planned the trip for a year and am ready for the adventure to begin.

    Abilene, Amarillo, Alburquerque, Flagstaff, Grand Canyon, Las Vegas, Zion, Bryce, SLC, Yellowstone, Sturgis, Cheyenne, Colorado Springs, Dodge City, and HOME.

    All aboard...

    That sounds like a great trip. I'm sure you'll have a wonderful time seeing so much of the country and all that ryding. I'd love to take that kind of time and do such a long trip.

    Have fun!

    Sounds like a hot time (pun intended)! Send me a PM when you get to Las Vegas and maybe we can take a ride together or get the local Spyder riders out for a dinner. Have fun and drink lots of water and good luck with that camping thing.

    Default 22 Days in the saddle...

    I am delighted to read the comments and know that SpyderLovers care so much. Thanks for the kind words. I hope to send updates and pictures.

    As for Alburquerque, I am pulling in July 27. Staying at Kirkland and leaving the next morning.

    As for Las Vegas, I arrive July 30 and have free time the morning of Aug 1 before heading up the road to Mesquite for the night.

    Right now, I am 99% packed.

    Thanks, again.
