Some business, over 4,000 miles a month in the saddle?
Gonna need some kinda ride report. As long as you didnt have to go thru west tx, it had to be a nice bunch of roads.
Lessee.....
Left CO, then NE, SD, MN, WI, MN, SD, ND, MT, ID, WA, OR, CA, NV, UT, WY, NE, IA, IL, MO, NE, and back home to CO.
Beat a snowstorm home by 12 hours.
Bike ran great, very few of the miles were ridden on interstates, I made some $$, met lots of great people, got to talk to a lot of great kids....it was all good.
BTW, I usually LIKE riding through West Texas!
