You don't say when which way? east to west? west to east? timescale? if you elaborate I am sure you will get many more replies. Not meaning to sound negative but if you tell us when you are going many many hubbers will be in the vicinity at thye same time and I am sure would be more than willing to share a bit of tarmac with you.
Keep upright Billy

I have done Myrtle Beach NC to Pear 1 in Los Angeles, CA, catching Route 66 in St Louis,MO riding it all the way down to LA.
It was an awesome trip that I did on my own since I could not find anyone that had the gut or time to do it with me.
Good luck and have fun!!
David

This is on my bucket list, just one question alone or with a pillion. On my own I can do what I want when I want go where I want when I want. All
sounds great, but isn't, any road trip best shared, to be honest I think it is. Just one problem no one to do it with, hey ho!!!!!

New to Horizons Unlimited?

Horizons Unlimited was founded in 1997 by Grant and Susan Johnson following their journey around the world on a BMW R80G/S.

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.
