Riding Across America - 1 girl, 1 Triumph Bonneville, 16 000km
Hi Guy's,
I'm Weronika (Veronica).
After my previous trip - Riding Across Europe ( here you can find thread ) I decide to realize my next dream... adventure across North America.
This time I will ride on Triumph Bonneville.
I hope I'll have opportunity to meet some of You while my trip.
That's my map & I'll start my adventure from South
More about Riding Across America you can find on twitter: https://twitter.com/RidingAcross and Facebook https://www.facebook.com/RidingAcrossAmerica pls like them and share to your motorcycle friends
best,
Weronika

Weronica, be sure to see the HU Events page and try to get to as many HU Meetings as you can! You'll meet lots of great people and get a lot of great advice on what to see.
A Tip for the British Columbia section - that's the boring route - go Vancouver - Whistler - Duffy Lake - Nakusp and north from there, then east to Jasper and Banff then back south!

Weronica,
You haven't said WHEN you are starting :confused1:...or from where? :confused1:
Don't miss Idaho, Colorado, Arizona, Washington, Oregon ... and the BEST ... California Redwoods!
The WEST IS THE BEST!
(PS: The deep South is hot & miserable in June, July and August, most of September)

W. I admire your trip, but the posted route will have you riding in traffic and through a lot of cities. You will miss a lot of the best that America has to offer. Enjoy your trip!

Instead of riding through Nebraska, I'd recommend riding north of there through Wyoming - South Dakota. That way you can visit Devils Tower, Mount Rushmore, the Black Hills, etc.
But then again, it's your ride and you may well have reasons for picking the route you did.
Enjoy your journey!

Membership - help keep us going!
Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.
You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
