Coast to Coast

During the summer of 2015 I will have the opportunity to take 2 months of the summer to do a trip. The idea would be to ride east from Alberta Canada to the east coast of Canada. Head south to the states and then make my way to the west coast (LA). Finish along the California and Oregon coast back to Canada.

I was just curious, if you were to do the trip again, is there something you would do to your Rocket to make the trip more comfortable or enjoyable or was your setup good enough?

I rode my 2012 R3R with stock seat, bars and pegs. I'm a stiff and sore old turd and managed to ride every day except four (two for a rally in Nevada and two waiting for rain in Maggie Valley). Averaged over 300 mile per day over 6 weeks. Do not miss the dragon and the Cher a hula and Georgia and Arkansas and Colorado and . . .

6 weeks, did you find yourself rushed or was that plenty of time? I know what you mean about what not to miss. I found a site that lists the top 100 motorcycle roads in the United States as voted on by riders. I took a weekend and plotted each on a map and then stood back to see how I could join the dots to get in as many of these routs as possible. I think 8 weeks may not be quite enough
On your trip did you use hotels, camp or a mix?
Cheers

I just checked with my buddy in Chilliwack to see if they have crossed paths but no luck. You never know we all may meet someday. Cheers and safe riding....when the snow leaves. Thanks again for the input.
