My Trip report



The above link is to my trip I just returned from, on my Sprint ST. I spent a lot of time surfing this & other sites looking for info to plan my ride, so here's my payback to all who came before me...

Looks like a great ride! I'm jealous of the time you have to ride. Maybe when I retire...

It fell together last minute, and I was able to take a 3 1/2 week LOA from work along with my 2 weeks vacation time. The lady works for her family business so that helped get her some leverage. Racked my credit cards up pretty good, but you only live once & even if it had caused my financial demise, it would have all been worth it :-D

My God, what fantastic memories you will have. What an incredible job you did saving and posting those images. Thank you from someone who probably will never get to do what you did.

I enjoyed your trip report very much. It sounds like you and your wife had a blast. I have only been west of Arkansas twice. I have seen a lot of the east coast, but after reading your travel log I feel like my travels have been so limited.
Thanks again, Dan Engel (adventureman)
ps- I grew up in Grosse Pointe, but I have been living in Viginia the past 34 years. I am only 30 miles from the Blue Ridge Parkway, so I am not complaining.
