Motorcycle Adventure 2014

It is hard to believe that another year has gone by and it's time for the three of us to prepare for another motorcycle adventure. It takes more preparation than you would think for three guys that are going to be gone for a couple of weeks. The actual planning begins around the first of June. We begin talking about the next trip about as soon as the first trip is over with. The year gets by so fast and we really like to make sure that we plan carefully so that we include every side trip along the way. It is the subject of coffee each week and also as we ride throughout the year. There's always conversation about the trip to come and about the trips that we've already had. A great deal of time is spent preparing the bikes themselves. There's always something to add and always something to take off.
In truth this years adventure actually began with a trip to Daytona Bike Week in Daytona Beach Florida. This was a six-day trip the first week in March. The morning that we left it was 27° and sleeting. It warmed up a little on the way down but not much and it did not warm up a great deal on the way home. We still had a great trip. One more item off the bucket list. We always say it's not the destination it's the journey. That is such a true statement. It is a great time for three old friends to enjoy their time together and share their interest. ROM
