• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

First ever e-x-t-e-n-d-e-d ryde!!

If you make it as far as Tucson, stop by the Pima Air & Space Museum with a tour of the aircraft boneyard. Also in Tuscon, is the Saguaro National Park. Very cool places, at least in this New England boy's opinion.

If you can, swing through Las Vegas we will hold that 40% for you.lol

Seriously, if you do get up this way let us know. There are a lot of great rides and people here.
 
Mostly non bike stuff- I try to be on the road far from home at least 3 months a year, mostly in my camper but I have done most of the country on my RT as well.

Wherever you stop, every single teeny tiny town seems to have a Chinese restaurant and they all have good Lo Mein. I just ask for "House Special Lo Mein" and have them deliver it. usually about $8 and it feeds two.

Drink lots of water. I have a cup holder for it on the dash of the RT. Also use it as an excuse to stop, often. We would pick just about any lonely roadside rest we could find and hang under a tree drinking water until we gurgled.

Folks will like your Can-Am, folks that don't like motorcycles even.

If, like me, you happen to be a banjo player you can remove the neck and fit it in the frunk, put two beers inside the pot.

The speed you ride is partly dependent on the local limits and LEOs, but also on mood. I have ridden along happily and had school buses pass me. Other times no one can catch me. I did get caught once- 100 in a 70.

I took extra gas. It took up a lot of room and I never needed it. I think I'll skip it next time. I took extra tools to do stuff I knew how to and a Leatherman saved me once.

If you are relying on a GPS take a map book anyway. Michelin makes a really nice one in a smaller format.

Have a great time!

Thx SO much for the suggestions! No banjo so the beer will hafta fit somewhere else! Gotta have a map to find the out of the way places so we can program the GPS!
 
We just spent the better part of the day with "JLeitzke" here in San Antonio. From the moment we met them for the first time in the hotel parking lot until we bid them farewell and safe passage, the time shared proved to be truly enjoyable.

If anyone else is in a position to share their local communities with this wonderful couple as they cross the United States, we highly encourage you to take the opportunity to do so. They are both so genuine. We are grateful for having met them.
