    Default Road Trip!! Granddaughter & Paw Paw

    School is out!

    Tomorrow morning, my 12-year-old granddaughter and I are starting a 4-day road trip on our 2010 Spyder RT. We will travel back roads from Central Texas to Palo Duro Canyon to see the play, "Texas."

    Our the first night is at Abilene State Park and then to Palo Duro. Monday, we travel to Commance to visit an old friend.

    We will be home Tuesday.

    Her 16-year-old and I will ryde the 2011 Spyder RT Ltd starting on the 22nd. We will stop at Palo Duro, Oklahoma City, Whiteman AFB, Winterset, Iowa, and Cedar Rapids. There she will switch with my wife and ride home with her parents and siblings. My wife will ryde the bike along the Great River Road to St. Louis and Memphis. Then we cut over to Little Rock AFB and Barksdale AFB before heading home.

    Sounds like fun remember to stop often and make sure they drink lots of water to keep them hydrated. Enjoy this time with them as this will be a trip you both will remember forever

    Great way to start her out. My friend and I just took his two daughters to Americade. One is 18 and has ridden with us for years, the other is 12 and this was her first multi-day trip. It was fun to introduce a new comer to touring, even if she wasn't mine. It was fun being asked to help so both of them could go.
