Ouachita Parish

With over 137,000 miles on the odometer and over 60,000 on the trip, Willie's belt gave out on me today only 250 miles from home. So close! Luckily, I was very close to Warhawk HD in Monroe, AL, and was able to make it to them before it completely broke.

Because I am so close to home, I decided to leave the bike with them--they'll get the belt and pulley parts on Saturday--and take an early morning Greyhound to Tyler, TX, where my awesome uncle is going to pick me up.

Every day is an adventure!

I suppose I'll call this the end of the trip, although I still have a couple thousand miles to ride in order to complete the Motorcycle Grand Tour of Texas.

Final stats and a wrap up will be in Part 2 later this month.

So long [for now], and thanks for all the fish! ✌️
