Woke up early, went for my morning waking-up shower, packed everything, and rode downtown to take some picture of Savannah, which I had not seen that much the night before, thanks to focusing on drinking without eating much 🙂 Savannah is definitely a nice little town, with quite some charm. However, I had to realize that today […]
Waking up early, and breakfast not being included at the Budget Inn, I was ready to go around 8:30am, and heading toward Charlotte, my GPS warned twice about some traffic jam, so I realized I might just be riding during the morning rush hour. I had not really done my homework about what was to be seen […]
Plan for the day was to reach Charlotte. The tracking path above doesn’t include the portion between Nashville and Cookeville because I probably forgot to start the app or begin tracking. If I leave the app on, it ends sucking all my battery in less than a day, so I use to switch it off […]
Day started with the usual camper morning routine: wake up, shower, oatmeal, packing, leaving. The guy that had parked his car (and slept in it) on the tent site besides me at night – and then moved to the following site after I started my little campfire, I guess he didn’t like fires (or smoke) – had […]
Chatted with two older women – one with a strong accent I could barely understand – that were leaving the motel at the same time I was packing stuff on the bike. Just the usual chit-chat, ending with ride safe. It’s funny how many people are curious and wondered about this trip I’m doing. Obviously it’s […]
So the goal for this day was to go more or less half the way to Memphis. I had the option to stop at a campground in a small city south of the I-40, and I had thought of Mena, AK initially, but on a stop at a gas station yesterday, an older woman had […]
I forgot to mention in my last post the impressive number of wind turbine before and after Amarillo. The following picture doesn’t do it justice, but I think they are in the 2-3 hundred range – at least the ones I saw – spread on different areas, often inlined with one another, but still turning at different speed. […]
The trip between Albuquerque and Amarillo, mostly on the I-40, was totally boring and uneventful. I left Albuquerque in the morning with a light rain starting, and saw the cloud following me as I was riding toward Amarillo, but never catching me, for my luck. Not much more to be said, plain boring 🙂 I […]
So, I started the day bringing the bike to R&S Honda Polaris, which seemed the dealership with the best reviews among two in Albuquerque. Martin, the service manager received me friendly and understanding the time constraint set everything for my bike to get not the basic service – which should have been done around 4000 […]
So once more, I packed my stuff, loaded everything on the bike, and from the Cadillac Ranch RV Park in Bluff, I rode this time to Four Corners, for a start. Little roads, some twisties, the ride was nice, despite the fact the desert landscapes were starting to get me a little bored (too much of good things, […]
