Leaving Torrey, UT on the 8 day of our 2021 Cross Country Motorcycle Trip, we dodged cows for the first part of the ride before getting to see some amazing scenery through Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. After a quick stop for breakfast in Escalante, we rode to Bryce Canyon National Park, stopping at the visitor center, Rainbow Point, Natural Bridge, and Bryce Point. Next we finished off the Mighty 5 with a visit to Zion National Park. Zion has always

Before leaving Moab in the early afternoon, my sister took off early in the morning to go hiking and repelling in Moab. I decided to take the morning to get some additional rest and catch up on some emails and calls. Once she returned to the hotel, we got some lunch and then made our way to Torrey, UT for the night. It was another lower mileage day at around 150 miles but we did get to check out Capitol

Waking up in Moab, UT on the 6th day of our Cross Country Motorcycle Trip, headed to Canyonlands National Park. By far our shortest mileage day but also the most difficult riding we faced on the trip. My sister and I split apart a few miles outside of town. I took my KTM 1290 Super Adventure on Potash Road while she rode her Ducati Multistrada to the main entrance of the park before hitting Shafer Trail. We met at the

The 5th day of our Cross Country Motorcycle Trip was one of the shorter mileage days. We rode from Grand Junction, CO to Arches National Park where we spent most of the day. After we finished in Arches we ended the day in Moab. Fortunately, the hotel had a pool because it was HOT and we needed to cool off.

For the last few years, I’ve referred to Million Dollar Highway as my “Eleanor.” My first attempt to ride it was in 2015 but severe storms in the area forced me to reroute the trip. I missed it again in 2017. In 2020 I was set to make the attempt once again but a failed fuel pump cost me 3 down days forcing me to make the tough decision to miss it once again. They say “3’s a charm” but

On Day 2 of our 2021 Cross Country Motorcycle Trip, my sister and I begin the day in Louisville, KY. While not an overly exciting day of riding, we do get to stop in St. Louis, MO to check out the Gateway Arch before eventually ending up in Topeka, KS.

After an epic cross country motorcycle trip in 2020, my sister, Angela and I are back to travel the country again in 2021. She is once again riding her 2012 Ducati Multistrada 1200 Touring S while I continue to rack up the miles on my 2016 KTM 1290 Super Adventure. We have a 2 week trip planned that we kicked it off on Friday, August 6, 2021 riding from our homes in Bunker Hill, WV to Louisville, KY. Hope you

On Sunday October 10, 2021, we left Cumberland, MD on Day 2 of the first ever 2WR ADV riding event. The weather was less than optimal but it didn’t put a damper on the fun we had out riding. We hit up some run dirt (with a little mud), gravel and even a bonus creek crossing before making it to Inwood, WV for our final stop of the trip enjoying some King’s Pizza. We had a great group of riders
