    Our first road trip on our new to us 2014 RT se6 was to Alpine. Biggest hazard was buzzards enjoying the numerous dead animals that littered the highway. Those passenger arm rests are really handy. They saved me several hours not having to go back down the highway looking for Martha. She stayed on the bike the whole way.

    The soft Hopnel luggage that fits the "panniers" and the Frunk is great and quite cheap and fits like gloves.

    It rained pretty hard on us as we approached Marathon and when "Nanny" sensed any hydroplaning she shut off the cruise control.

    Be safe....

    Congrats on the new ride. But why Marfa? I went through there once on a train (which stopped all auto traffic in the entire town) and didn't see much as a destination (except for the bar next to the train tracks which sells plenty of beer in brown paper bags to train passengers apparently).
