Catch the LDR Bug With Webb

"It's not the destination; it's the journey." This year I'll ride my Harley over 100,000 miles to help seven young men live their best lives by getting them off the pavement with an all-terrain wheelchair.

    1Wish I could've caught the terrible lightning and thunder

    Tour of Valor Day 3

    4. september, Forenede Stater ☁️ 81 °F

    Today was a very short day of dodging storms.

    One really bad one slammed down at 0530, and I just barely got under the porte cochere at the church next door to the dealership in time to keep from being instantly soaked. Lightning and thunder galore. I stayed there for almost an hour, then when the rain seemed to ease up (but was still pouring down), I darted the quarter mile to McDonald's, where I parked, grabbed my tank bag, and bolted inside without getting too terribly wet.

    I hung out there until 0900 when the radar showed I was in between cells. I got lucky on the way to Baton Rouge and only hit some sprinkles, wet roads, and road spray along I-10.

    I was also extremely lucky to have avoided the second torrent in Natchez. I thought I was north of all the liquid sunshine and stopped to eat (and waste time) at a sit down restaurant. When I got ready to leave around 1230, I looked outside and it was absolutely pouring again. I hung out until 1330 when radar, again, showed I was between cells, so I darted northward to Monroe. Close calls indeed!!

    At the dinner this evening at Warhawk HD (BTW never get your bike serviced there if you can avoid it), I was telling a friend about my run in with two dumpster divers last night. Just as I had gotten to sleep, two adult men on little bikes zoomed past me to check the dumpsters. When they got done, they came back to me and apparently wanted to chit chat. I made it pretty obvious I did not want to talk with them, and they left. But I fitfully slept with my stick-em-with-the-pointy-end attached to my wrist the rest of the night.

    My friend didn't like that story at all, and insisted that I share his hotel room. So very nice of him, and I didn't argue. But by the end of the dinner he said I couldn't stay with him...because he got me a room to myself 😱. What a wonderful person. Thank you!!!!

    So here I am in the hotel, showered and ready to sleep comfortably and safely in a cozy bed with great air conditioning. Thanks again!!

    Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING! ✌️

    Tour of Valor Day 4

    5. september, Forenede Stater ☀️ 99 °F

    Had a really nice day collecting 4 more Tour of Honor stops and eating a yummy fried smoked bologna sandwich at a Ride To Eat stop.

    It was over 100°F, so I cut out the last RTE location that would have kept me on the road for another hour. No thanks.

    I got to Rock City HD to find our dinner tables in the middle of the parking lot in the direct sun with no shade coming. No thanks.

    But then someone had the brilliant idea to move them onto the side of the building...in the shade 👏👏👏. Imagine that. So our pulled pork bbq sandwich with beans and potato chips was better than I expected.

    My friend, once again, got me a hotel room 🤗. Incredibly kind of him. I had just checked in, dropped my stuff in the room, and headed to the lobby for some adult beverages with the gang. But while I was there, two Blue Knights MC were checking in but the hotel didn't have any double beds left. So I switched my double for their king. 👍

    It was a really pleasant, relaxing, nice conversation evening. Great day!!

    Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING! ✌️

    Tour of Valor Day 5

    6. september 🌙 79 °F

    I slept in this morning and didn't leave the hotel until 1000 🤣. The rally doesn't have a dinner tonight, so I was in no hurry.

    Today I finished riding AR 7, a wonderfully squiggly road you can take from Louisiana to Missouri. It's a very nice way to see Arkansas.

    I also did the Pig Trail (AR 23), which is the 50 Rides of Arkansas. Unfortunately, this time it was at night, and I took it very slowly. Lots of deer and even a fox were in the road tonight. And I'm pretty sure I squished a frog 😔. The road isn't very long, but it sure does squiggle!! Put it on your ride list!!

    Now I'm tucked away by a church in a little town somewhere between Fort Smith and Bentonville. Another great day!

    And best of all, I rolled 100,000!!! Woo hoo!! I'm so happy to have that done even though I'm going much further.

    Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING! ✌️

    Tour of Valor Day 6

    7. september, Forenede Stater 🌙 73 °F

    Being back to sleeping outdoors means getting up at o-dark-thirty to pack up and roll before anyone realizes I've been there. So, today I'm back to my normal mileage, which felt great 😁!

    After getting the photo at Pig Trail HD, I squiggled along US 62 to Eureka Springs. Great road!!

    From there I turned north and was pretty on boring highways and interstates the rest of the day. I had to deal with a significant amount of RVs and boats, the former of which tended to be tying up the left lane and the latter of which tended to be stranded on the side of the road with flats 🤦.

    I wasn't looking forward to riding through St Louis, but I suppose the holiday made rush hour lighter, so I didn't have any significant problems.

    When I got to St Charles HD for the pic, I ran into one of the rally members who thought we had dinner there tonight. Nope. It's Monday and they're closed, so no rally support 😔. He was staying in town there like the rally schedule of events planned, but over the course of the day I realized that the further north I went, the cooler and dryer the weather turned. So, I decided to keep heading north to Peoria, where well have out next dinner tomorrow.

    So, here I am, tucked away in a dark corner of another church parking lot in Peoria. It's about 65°F and no chance of rain 😁, so I'm next to the bike on my chaise lounge inside my sleeping bag for the first time in a while, and lying on my deflated air mattress. A couple of the chambers disconnected and now there's a big air lump in the middle 😔. Oh well. An early stop, but other than the highway noise that won't bother me, it's a perfect spot. Great day!! 👍

    Tour of Valor Day 7

    8. september, Forenede Stater 🌙 79 °F

    Woke up at 0500. Rolled a whopping 3 miles to McDonald's where I sat until 1400 🤣. If only there was a Whataburger here 🤣. Moved on to the dealership, where we had a dinner of disgusting what was suppose to be pulled pork (maybe from a can?) and fairly decent but salty bacon with green beans. A bag of chips and lemonade to make sure it was palatable. 🤢. Oh well. When a dealership doesn't have a working relationship with its HOG chapter, this is what happens. Very sad, but at least there is still a chapter.

    I was planning on sleeping at last night's church again, but my friend had a suite with a sofa at his hotel, so he...once again...offered me a place indoors with aircon. 🫶.

    A few drinks at the bar with several friends, a hot shower after, and now a comfy sofa. 😴😴😴

    Tour of Valor Day 8 The End

    10. september, Forenede Stater 🌙 63 °F

    What a lovely day. A delicious breakfast followed by a lazy start to the morning led to a slow ride about 200 miles north to Madison Harley-Davidson.

    A tour of the amazing dealership led to a round robin discussion with several members of the HD corporate motor clothes team about everything from rain gear to boots to gloves to shirts. I hope they make my gloves again soon!!

    The HD served a very nice bratwurst dinner with potato salad, chips, and drinks. Simple and delicious. Thank you!

    I told you how my friend got me two hotel rooms during this rally and last night let me stay with him on his sofa. Tonight my friends offered me their spare bedroom, so we've just spent several hours chatting away. So kind of them to have me here.

    Back On The Road

    18. september, Forenede Stater ☁️ 75 °F

    Oh, what an extraordinary time I had with my friends in Tennessee this week!! I got to join them on their inaugural boat launch and we had a lovely lunch with a great view. It was just so nice to be with them. Thank you again!!!

    I begrudgingly left their home at 0800 heading towards Raleigh NC for the next State Capitol Building, as well as HDs, RTEs, and TOHs along the way.

    I squiggled along US421 until I reached North Carolina. Put that one on your ride list!! It was terrific!!!

    After stopping for lunch at a KFC, which was very disappointing (I'd like some chicken on my breading sandwich next time 🤢), I hit a torrential downpour that soaked me completely through. By the end of the day I had mostly dried except my undergarments and boots.

    The best part of today is that another riding friend and I crossed paths near Raleigh and were able to share a hotel room! Yay! We're both taking the long way to Amarillo for the next rally. So cool to meet up on the go!!Thank you so much!!!

    Other than the rain, it was a really great day!!

    One last thing: Last night I was a guest on a podcast where we discussed my 3rd place finish in the Hoka Hey. If you're interested, you can find it on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/live/jdnmw1WU0V4?is=rsl…

    The Sun Was Crying

    19. september, Forenede Stater 🌧 79 °F

    Oops. When I caught up with my friend to share the hotel room last night, I thought I only had 600 miles to go today.

    Unfortunately, I miscalculated. I actually had almost 800. Since I didn't roll until 0800 and didn't want to ride Atlanta after dark if possible, I cut out 4 of my RTE stops and didn't ride HOG's 50 Rides for Georgia (extra points for AULDR). I still had to ride part of US129, the eastern part of that ride, which really is a great road, but once I got there, I was really glad I didn't have to ride the rest of it.

    The sun was crying. 🌦️

    Despite brilliant sunshine, I rode about 10 miles of twisties in a torrential thunderstorm. Very slick road snakes (tar lines) made it very slow going, and I came to the realization that I'm over twisties...at least for this year. Two and a half days straight of them during the Hoka Hey broke me 🤣😔.

    Knowing I have service at Atlanta HD in the morning, I prebooked a hotel room so I could sleep in and be sheltered from the sporadic storms expected tonight. And that's where I'm sitting right now. 👍

    I Am So Done 😔...Almost

    20. september, Forenede Stater 🌙 81 °F

    I think staying with my friend for a week broke me. As wonderful as it was, I think that it was too long of a break.

    I'm tired. Tired of the semis trying to squish me. Tired of the pickup trucks with tires that stick out past the fender flares who speed up when I pass. Tired of the Sienna drivers too busy with their kids or phone to actual drive the thing. Tired of the potholes, the rain, the lack of blinker fluid, the speed traps, the cigarettes lobbed out of car windows at me. Fucking tired.

    Wait. That's not.... No. It couldn't be. Is that whining?!? That sounds a lot like whining. Ok. Enough of that.

    Suck it up, chica!

    But I'll only be 50 miles from my home tomorrow. Can't I go home for just a little while? Please?!

    No. You know if you go home you won't leave again. Forget it, girl. Keep rolling. You're almost done.

    Ok. You're right. Almost done. Can't quit now. Amarillo tomorrow for the second half of Route 66 with the HOG gang. Friends to hug. Sights to see. Memories to make. Gotta keep rolling. 💪

    Michael 1,268 vs. Semi 1

    21. september, Forenede Stater ☁️ 82 °F

    One of those fucking truck drivers finally got me. Don't worry though. I'm fine. Wasn't hurt at all. Barely moving, maybe 5 mph. I was in the right lane at a light and all I saw were headlights behind me, so I moved to the right to get out of the way. He went into the right shoulder and jumped a curb to pass me, but his front bumper caught my right side highway peg, lower fairing skin, handlebar, wind deflector, and upper fairing skin. This of course knocked me over to the left, so there's similar damage on that side, too 🤣😔. Best of all, he fled the scene. But I got his trailer number, which was a gravel hauler, and the cops did a Hit & Run report for me to give to insurance. The boys in blue (4 in 3 cars and 3 firefighters in the big truck, lucky me) suspected where he was going and probably a non-CDL driver, explaining the run. It didn't seem like they were going to do anything about it though. Oh well. I guess it happens pretty often with them. BTW, I was in Jackson MS having just exited off I-20. That's going to be an expensive Capitol Building photo 🤣😔. Well, for Progressive anyway 🤣😔.

    The rest of the day was more dodging semis 🖕 on I-20 until I could turn north in Louisiana as I headed to Oklahoma City. My original route had me going directly through a huge thunderstorm rolling east through Texas so I rerouted and missed all of it 💪😀. But then...30 miles before Oklahoma City...another huge storm was moving straight towards me and moving fast. So I opted to go straight to my hotel room instead of the Capitol Building. I'll grab that in the morning.

    Now I am in my $40 room 👍 hoping neither the storm nor the druggies nor the homeless people destroy the bike tonight. 🤞. I think it'll be okay. Michael's a tough guy 🤣🤣🤣.

    Amarillo

    22. september, Forenede Stater ☀️ 77 °F

    Woke up to torrential rain. Waited it out before grabbing the pic of the Oklahoma capitol building, then swung north to Edmund to meet up with my friend. The same friend I stayed with outside Raleigh a few days ago 🤣. We're both heading to Amarillo for the HOG Route 66 West Touring Rally.

    We narrowly avoided the other storm.cells along I-40 and made it into Amarillo this afternoon without incident.

    We met the other 150-ish people at Tripp's HD for dinner, door prizes, and fellowship. So wonderful to see so many familiar faces.

    This is going to be fun!!

    Route 66 West Day 1

    23. september, Forenede Stater 🌧 55 °F

    Five of us left Amarillo this morning at 0700 bound for Santa Fe. Unfortunately, it was pouring rain almost all day, so we very slowly made our way down I-40 and bypassed most of the Route 66 stops. We did stop at the Midway Point Cafe for pics, though.

    We took I-40 past Tucumcari through Santa Rosa, then took US-84 northwest to Las Vegas where we had lunch. Then it was back in the rain to Santa Fe.

    Just outside, I broke off the pack to get my state Capitol Building pic, then went straight to Wicked West HD. They adjusted my highway pegs back to where I can use them 👍.

    Everyone else made it to the dealership, and we had a very nice meal of green chili cheeseburgers. Yummy! Then it was off to the hotel to crank up the heat and take a hot shower. Not only was I wet from the rain, but the temp dropped to almost 50°F, so I was pretty cold, too.

    Tomorrow should be better weather, and I hope to see more Route 66 sights 🤞.

    Route 66 West Day 2

    24. september, Forenede Stater ☁️ 68 °F

    The weather was much better today. Skies were overcast and we only had a few sprinkles, so three of us got to see a lot more of Route 66. One of the highlights for me was recognizing the crossroads Hotel, which was used in the show Breaking Bad.

    Noton the Route, we rode to Acoma Pueblo, a town built on top of the mesa. Gorgeous. Visitors to the top are strictly controlled, so we didn't go up, but it was a nice drive south of I-40. More of I-40 in New Mexico is built on top of Route 66, so unless you're a Route purist, sticking to the interstate is the fastest way to do the Route and still make time.

    Another highlight was the drive-through sign in Geants. Nice!!

    We're having dinner at El Rancho Hotel, a long-time resident of Gallup and location for at least a dozen films with Ronald Reagan, Marlene Deitrick, Humphrey Bogart, and the likes. What an amazing place!!

    Not sure what tomorrow will bring, but looking forward to it!!

    Route 66 West Days 3 & 4

    25.–27. sep., Forenede Stater 🌙 88 °F

    Three of us left a cloudy Gallup at 0800 Friday morning and almost immediately ran into rain again 😔. Fortunately, it wasn't too bad, and we popped out of it fairly quickly.

    Our first stop was in Holbrook to see the Wigwam Hotel (too cute!) and take a pic at the drive-through sign 👍. Then we swung by the "Here It Is" rabbit sign 🤣. And of course, when on Route 66, a visit to Glenn Frey on the corner in Winslow Arizona is a must 🧡. We stopped at one of the old bridges, then had lunch at 2 Bar 3 nearby, which was a really cool place with live music and a huge outdoor venue. But not while we were there, unfortunately 🤪.

    I split off from the guys after lunch because they were headed into Flagstaff with the rest of the rally riders. We don't have a rally dinner tonight, so my friends invited me to their home in Lake Havasu instead.

    There were 6 of us total, and we had a great time Friday evening and most of Saturday just hanging out and talking, the boys in the mancave and the girls in the backyard. There may have been some adult beverages and a swimming pool jacuzzi involved 🤪.

    Around 1500 Saturday, we drove about an hour to Kingman for the rally dinner. Again, we had a really nice time. One of the guys won a pair of Paul's Socks (inside joke), but there was no way he was going to fit his big ol' clogs in them, so I guess his wife has a new pair now 🤣.

    After bbq brisket, we drove back home and called it an early night as we're leaving before 0800 tomorrow morning.

    What a wonderful group of people!! 🤗🫶

    Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING! ✌️

    2Ludlow CA 😳 The highest I've seen all year

    Route 66 West Day 5

    27. september, Forenede Stater ☁️ 81 °F

    We left my friends home around 0730 this morning. They were going to rejoin Route 66 from just west of Kingman and head up the Sidewinder squiggly road into Oatman. I've already been through there this year, so I decided to pretty much beeline it to the hotel.

    I did a little of Route 66 on the way, though, stopping at Goff's Schoolhouse where there was a Tour of Honor stop. Then I had a really nice conversation with Paul on the side of the Route as we figured out the detour for construction. Nice guy 👍.

    I popped by Roy's Motel & Cafe as well. Pretty cool stop and right at the junction to drop down south into Twentynine Palms and Joshua Tree National Park, which is an amazing place and a must see...but not during the summer 🥵🥵🥵.

    I missed ALL the hot weather today, only reaching 80°F! 👍👍 Winning!!

    After a short lunch at a nearby McDonald's, I'm sitting in the hotel lobby waiting on my friend to arrive so she can check us in. She told the hotel to let me check in for her, but they don't have any record of it 🤦. Oh well.

    Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING! ✌️

    Route 66 West Day 6: The End

    28. september, Forenede Stater 🌙 70 °F

    Three of us left Victorville at 0800 determined to finish Route 66 despite LA area traffic.

    Our first stop was the location of the very first McDonald's 😱. It's a museum now, but the inside wasn't open until 1000, so we rolled on.

    We saw some.of the old buildings, mainly motels, including another Wigwam Hotel and a motor motel with a carport for each room. I wish they had those now.

    We stopped for lunch at The Hut, a small chain of fastfood restaurants that specialize in pastrami. I had the "World Famous Pastrami Cheeseburger," which was huge and delicious. It had a sauce similar to a Big Mac or Thousand Island dressing. The pastrami was absolutely fantastic 🤤. Tender, not stringy, very flavorful. Yum!!

    We were getting short on time, so we raced down Wilshire Boulevard to one of my Tour of Honor stops, a piece of the Berlin Wall. It's always so cool to see the original panels.

    After that, we jumped on I-10 and hightailed it to the Santa Monica Pier to take a group photo with the other rally riders. So awesome!!

    Then we were off to Bartel's HD for dinner, door prizes, and fellowship. I'm sad to say goodbye to everyone, but I'm ready to get rolling once again and very ready to finish up this epic year.

    It has been such a special treat to do the entire length of Route 66 on its 100th Anniversary. And to do it with friends, both old and new, has made it a trip I won't soon forget. Thank you!! 🤗

    LA to Tucson

    29. september, Forenede Stater ☀️ 73 °F

    I am truly weary 😔. I have to force myself out of bed. I have no desire to ride, but I am pushing to roll further. This morning was no different.

    To help myself get and keep going, I decided to skip the last three Tour of Honor stops in California, which saved me 600 miles today. So, instead of staying in Yuma as I expected, I've made it all the way to Tucson. Unfortunately, I've run into the back of a storm (hurricane remnants?), so I've stopped at a motel for the night, which is where I am now.

    Hope to see you on the road! Remember, NO WHINING! ✌️

    NM152 -- Ride It!

    30. september, Forenede Stater 🌙 64 °F

    I REALLY had trouble getting out of bed today 😔. I forgot to set my alarm and didn't wake up until after 0700, but didn't roll until almost 0900.

    I had planned to have lunch with my friend Michael in El Paso, but with my late start, that turned into dinner.

    Once I got rolling, I really missed my heated grips, which haven't worked since the semi knocked me over. It was only 50°F 😱! But despite the chill and some rain, I collected two Tour of Honor stops for New Mexico before meeting up with Michael in Fabens TX at Cattleman's Steakhouse at Indian Cliffs Ranch. Several movies were filmed there, including Courage Under Fire (Meg Ryan, Denzel Washington). A wonderful 3-hour long fellowship and amazingly delicious meal. Thanks for waiting for me!!!

    I was so full and contented after seeing Michael and eating so much food that I grabbed the first motel room I could find. Then I texted my friend in Memphis to see if I could stay with her again tomorrow. It's over 1100 miles to get to her, but I need service and I'm sick of camping it. Wish me luck!! 🤞

    Oh yeah, and if you're in southern New Mexico, make sure to ride NM152!!! Comparable to Arizona's Devils Highway and absolutely stunning. Lots of camping along the river. Beautiful scenery, twisty squiggles, and good road surface!!! Ride it!!!

    Iron Butt to Tennessee

    1. oktober, Forenede Stater ⛅ 79 °F

    Last NM TOH. 250 miles of rain 😔, from west of Fort Worth to Texarkana 😔. Only 18 semis tried to squish me. The further south the interstate is, the more aggressive the fucking truckers are. Dickheads, every single one of them.

    Soaked

    2. oktober, Forenede Stater 🌧 81 °F

    🤬🤬🤬 The same storm I spent 250 miles in yesterday has followed me. I'll have to keep riding in it to get to Erie PA before I can turn east. 🤬🤬🤬 I've taken showers that left me drier than this storm.

    Fuck it. I'm at a hotel. 250 miles today, service this morning, 1 TOH stop this afternoon when I could finally see the road.

    P.S.: The service team at Bumpus HD of Jackson TN is fantastic!!! They were definitely the best part of my day.

    Another Pilot with only E15 low grades. Can't come here in the car

    It's Definitely Autumn

    3. oktober, Forenede Stater 🌙 55 °F

    Another morning where it was hard to get out of bed. I let the weather pass and rolled out about 0700. The roads were still wet and road spray was killer, but my boots and clothes stayed dry today 👍. (I left the hair dryer running on my boots all night last night. Worked great!! 🤣)

    I didn't have a lot of stops today, but I got the Tennessee Capitol Building (only 8 to go!), three dealerships, and one Tour of Honor site. 💪

    The best part of my day was when my friend called me this evening. I had stopped for gas about 50 miles before Erie PA and saw there was a Red Roof Inn across the highway. Just as I got off the highway, my buddy Mike called. He lives in New York state and was curious if I would have time to see him. I called him back after I got gas and got into the hotel. And my answer was I absolutely have time to see you tomorrow!! Yay!

    Now I'm curled up in a comfy bed with the heat on 😱. At my last gas stop, I was about to put on my heated gloves because the temperature dropped to the mid-50s when the sun went down 🥶. The hotel clerk said it was 45°F yesterday, so I brought my heated gear into the hotel to layer up in the morning. Maybe I won't need it though 🤞.

    P.S.: I think I found the only Red Roof that has breakfast 😱🤗.

    New York 🤦

    4. oktober, Forenede Stater 🌙 57 °F

    All day driving in New York 🤦. No one stays in their lane, no one looks when they pull out or change lanes. I thought it was just NYC, but nope, it's the whole state apparently.

    It was a beautiful day, though, and I got a few chances to glance away from the road to see some of the fall foliage. The sun lit up a valley of hundreds of reds, yellows, and greens. It's really beautiful.

    The best part of the day was meeting up with my friend Mike near Rochester. Thanks for the fellowship and food!! Hugs until next time!!

    Now, I'm camped behind Performance HD in Syracuse. It's lit up, but there seems to be a dense homeless population in this area, so lights are welcome tonight. I have a sleeping mask. I also used their picnic table to rework my routes for tomorrow so I can make it to my next service on Tuesday. The rain put me about a day behind, but I think I've got it sorted now. 🤞 G'night!!
