That's an awesome trip. I'm so jealous and would love to do something like that with other folks sometime.
Get out there and do it bro. Dont wait till you retire to do the things you want to do. We met an old man somewhere along the way on a V-star that made us tear up, we were speechless. He worked all his life and saved, his wife and he had planned to buy and RV and a trailer to haul his motorcycle when he retired. She died shortly after he retired and he has lived for 10 years wishing he had gone on a trip, he said he would be thinking about all the fun we were having and wished us well..........what do you say to that? semi and I both were choked up. He was 72 and lost his wife when he was 62.

Nice beard too...How many months is that growth?
I'm still looking for the "Welcome to Hawaii" sign, LOL
That was one awesome trip and I hope one day (possibly the summer of 2015, I'll be debt free ) I can take a good long trip like that. The only problem I have is that pretty much everyone that I ride with is afraid to take a trip like that and I don't want to do it alone but I will if I have to.
To the OP - you guys were less than 10 minutes from me and you didn't stop by... no call, nothing. I'm deeply hurt.
Awesome pics!! Such an EPIC journey!! Thanks for stopping by and for sharing the memories!

Pics are Awesome Semi.
So Jealous!
I want to do a trip like this so bad.
James how was the bike? Pros and cons?
The bike was great in all weather and conditions, with the exception of all the stop and go we found in Jersey. With Juli on the back and all the gear the bike was a bit top heavy. I finally figured out in Florida that if I changed the suspension setting, it lowered the bike and made it more manageable. No more issues past that, this is a great bike for two up touring in comfort, mileage range, weather, etc. She even handled better than expected on some of the same roads we shared in Arkansas earlier this year.
