What an incredible adventure! We are happy and proud to have completed the whole trip without mishap. The bikes never missed a beat and proved to be fantastic touring machines. It is almost impossible to comprehend everything we saw and experienced and so this blog will be the best reminder..... and our photos...... and the numerous videos from the bike cam.
Final stats:

Dear Vicky,
ReplyDeleteI almost died when my husband showed me your blog! It's almost the exact same trip we took last year for 6 weeks from August into September. We started from Long Island, went up to Nova Scotia for a wedding. Toured around for a week then headed west hitting the last 3 days of Sturgis, then onto Craters of the Moon National Park, Big Horn Wyoming, up into Yellowstone and camped for 2 nights in West Yellowstone at a place called, "Canvas Under The Stars". Very cool. Then up into Whitefish Montana, Glacier National Park. Headed east on Rt. 2 the Highline heading home, Minnesota, Milwaukee, then Wisconson for the Harley Davidson 110th Anniversary party then home after a few days of that. That was a quick 6 weeks. I have been desperate to share our story and just started a blog recently so I will start soon. I was posting pictures and stories along the trip on Facebook for everyone to see but I eventually filled up my hard drive taking over 15,000 photos and then that was the end of that. But what a great trip! I can't wait to do it again.
My blog is new so I don't have anything on there yet like this trip but I will get to it. I am a photographer and student at a local college so I will be posting plenty of stories and photography. Looking forward to chatting. Thanks for sharing your story and inspiring me to share mine!
Sincerely,
Dagny Gallo
Hi Dagny, Thanks for your kind comments. I was remiss in not checking on comments waiting to be posted and just found them all. It is so satisfying to look back at the blog now - it brings back all the memories of the trip, it is like reliving it all again!
DeleteMy husband and I took almost the exact same trip last August leading into September. I wrote you a few times here in the comments but for some reason they are not posting. I shared your story on my blog. You have inspired me to start writing my story. Thanks for sharing.
