    Day 1 in the books! Everything went smooth except for David's bike wanting to take a nap a couple times and some shuddering out of my clutch. 210 miles down, and pork on the fire. Life is good.

  • A great night a sleep

    Woke up to perfect weather this morning, and a beautiful view of the lake. Trying to make it to Hiawatha, KS for a stay in a vintage motel. I'd like to go over the bike and wash some clothes. Cheers!

    Stopped after a long uneventful day. I had originally chosen the Sunflower Motel as it looked charming in the photos. Turns out it's quite dodgy. It did give me a chance to tear my clutch cover off and find grease packed in the clutch bell, causing shudder and chaos. I was able to clean and reassemble it before being offered drugs from the locals.Read more
