ok guys, heres the story...
after binging on a combination of the original mad max and browsing advrider.com, i want to try a trip of my own. The question is, how hard do you think it would be to ride from Rhode Island to San Fran on a cafe? I have limited space on the bike (its a cafe'd '82 cx500c by the way) so i would have to get creative with storage, and i need to find cheap/free places to stay between RI and Denver (from denver on I have friends scattered around).
As far as the route, what would the best roads to take, considering a combination of quality of road, minimum of traffic, and best sights along said road?
This route would best have some good moto shops nearby too, because seeing as my bike is older than I am, its bound to need some parts along the way (I'm pretty sure she's reliable enough, put about 2000 miles on her since july).
and I am also looking for people who want to tag along, even if its just for part of the way, always nice to ride with company ;D
Any help or ideas would be most appreciated!
