Greetings from Sandusky Ohio! I started out yesterday afternoon from Woodstock IL and made it to Elkhart IN with many stops for coffee, gas, to pee, rest... Tonight I stop at a friend's place in Cleveland and tomorrow I'll go to State College PA. I'm taking the interstate all the way. Boring, yes, but I don't have time for sight seeing, gotta be in Brooklyn Thursday night to see my daughter. I'll post pics if anyone cares and if I figure out how
You get a big ATA BOY!!!!! for giving it a go.
I don't like riding a bike on Interstates but.... have to agree 100% with Mr Pete about it being the best choice in your situation (a bike that is new and unknown to you).
I don't do GPS either but to each his or her own. I do the printed ( in LARGE print) instructions on the tank bag with a map for back up and always check where I am in the world during my stops....so I know what's coming up.
I'm planning a "longish" trip soon on my 650B...a little over 1500 miles doing 2 lane roads all the way.....can't wait.
PHOTOS!!!!!!!!!! yea......it didn't happen without photos
Good luck and please keep us posted.........Gordon in NC
