As the season starts for many of us and we break out our bikes and get ready to ride, here is a neat way to hit all 50 States.

While there are many ways to "skin the cat" of doing a 48 state road trip, I have yet to find one that has successfully done a 50 state road trip :)

the STOP in Washington state is a good one.... you'll never need to have an lights on when riding again... you'll be glowing a bright green all by yourself... :roflblack:

Whatever happened to just throwing the GPS into the nearest trash pile, grabbing a couple of platinum cards, and pointing yourself into the wind? :D

This almost seems to... clinical! :shocked:

Sorry, it's a target I'll never hit - have no interest in being East of the Rockies and outside a cage.... Hanalei, Kauai was bad enough... Just me.

The trip shown has some good ideas, but also leaves out a lot of good stuff. A good place to start if you are not good with stuff like this. :yes:

We did our trip in 71 days, 16K miles. There are still things out there that we missed. I would encourage everyone to hit all the states at least once, there are some really neat things/people out there.

In a perfect world I would retire very early and see the country on three wheels.:doorag:
