Ride Description
Route Map

This had to be the best vacation I have ever taken. It was over a year in planing and up to 6 month in prep work. Work on my motorcycles, new luggage. All kinds of detail to work on. I'm glad to say it all come together and worked out good. I ran from Phoenix to Key West and had a great time and meet some really good bikers along the way. My Vulcan 900 ran like a champ.

Lake Charles, LA

Short stop on US1

Could have added one day to the trip and traveled back roads. All your planning and only saw the interstates! A lot of beautiful roads were missed. Too bad.

Who wants to ride interstate like that? I would never waste a great motorcycle trip staring at an interstate hwy. All that traffic and poor scenery, shame. Man, you want to really enjoy riding? Get off the main hwy and find the back roads. It's easy, just google scenic hwy's and bywy's.

I rode the same route from KW to Matamoros MX and never once did I use an Interstate. You don't know what you missed. What a shame.
