You rode over 2,000 miles on the back? How long and how many miles a day?

What model is your bike? (we have a Electraglide Classic.)

Lucky girl. Looks like you had a great time. Glad that you were able to catch the broken spoke before an accident happened.

Looks like you had a great trip Cindy. That's a lot of riding.

About 20 years ago, my brother took his Gold Wing from Miami, FL to upstate Vermont, and back of course. He was no spring chicken when he did it either - in his mid-50's. Said it was a more comfortable trip than riding in a car!

My son and his wife bought a new bike last year - 2009 Ultra Classic Electraglide. Their dream is to take it cross country, but with their jobs, that's doubtful. They've had it to western PA and the Shenandoah Valley, but that's the farthest so far. They love riding.

Yes I did! I could go only about an hour and then we had to stop so I could stretch. My hips would begin to hurt if we went too long. Which we did a couple of times and I ended up in tears.

Our average a day was about 200 miles. Our longest day was just over 300 miles in one day. Of course that would take much longer because it would require more stops.

We have a 2004 Road King Classic. He had a special (wider) seat put on for me and the tour pack on the back is my back rest.

Great pictures!!! I feel like I've taken a little vacay.
