Motorcycle Journeys Through North America

Every rider with a passion for motorcycling maintains a mental "bucket list" of places to ride on two wheels. Some day. Some day has arrived. Stop dreaming about those long motorcycle adventures that seem out of reach. This book offers you the blueprints, advice, and encouragement to turn your some-day dreams into present-day realities. Inside you'll find the head start you need to plan fun-filled motorcycle tours, with more than forty suggested routes to pick from, ranging from week-long thousand-mile loops to treks averaging a month or more through the continental United States and Canada, all with an emphasis on the very best roads and rides. Whether you are considering an ocean-to-ocean cross-country journey, a vacation ride through the Canadian Rockies, a full length tour of the Blue Ridge Parkway, or a foray into the Southwestern badlands, this book offers the guidance you need to plan a successful ride, including best times of the year, route suggestions, areas to avoid, must-see attractions along the way, places to stay and eat, and, of course, plenty of first-hand stories and hard-learned lessons from the experts.
