Great write up. Maybe I missed it, but from your journal, it appears that you DID NOT use a trailer. Correct?

Well, you could ride to a town named for each one of our prisedents,or visit every historical marker in your state, or visit every county court house, or look for the WWI moniuments in each state, or, or, or. It is easy to find an excuse to ride some where:ohyea::yes:
You are an inspiration for all of us . Keep getting off the couch and do somthing you always want to do. I know I will .
You are correct . . . no trailer.
I pulled a trailer with a Goldwing over 15,000 miles. I'm now past sleeping on the ground, so a stock bike and a credit card are all I need.
Other destinations include finding the largest ball of twine, The Plastic Brick Museum, The Mushroom Museum, or even photographing "pleasure" centers in Nevada's desert. Hit the highest road on Mount Evans to the low point in Death Valley. If those places are too far, go get a Slurpee at a 7/11. Just go!
Hit the highest point in each state. Southernmost point in USA. Northernmost point in USA (etc)
That's a good one. Been to two of the Highest points. MN: Eagle Mt. in the Boundary waters area. 2301 ft. Views for 50 miles in all directions. You had to hike through swamps to get to that one. :yes:Quote:

Traveler, you sure enjoyed your run on the Spyder, hope I can enjoy another year or two. Thinking I might have to get a hip replaced that was replaced in 1998, we shall see, not looking forward to the Dr. visit.
