I have created this blog to document my upcoming Harley riding adventure around the good old US of A in August this year.
The blog will also enable me to document future riding adventures, like the Australian National HOG Rally at Lennox Head in October this year, the Victorian HOG Rally at Shepparton in March 2009 and the Queensland State Rally at Rockhampton in April 2009.
I am undertaking the USA trip as part of an overall tour through “West Forever” tour group, who have packaged what I consider is an excellent tour.
Details about West Forever can be found on the following link
Essentially we are in the State’s for two reasons, the first is to attend the Sturgis Rally in South Dakota at the beginning of August, the largest motorcycle rally in the world with around 500,000 bikes attending last year.
The second reason is to attend the 25th Anniversary of HOG and the 105th Anniversary of Harley Davidson celebrations at the end of August.
In between we will be travelling down to Memphis and New Orleans, then up through Tennessee, Washington and New York, past Niagra Falls and onto Chicago and then Milwaukee, the home of Harley.
I intend to post on this trip on a daily basis, commenting on the ride, the various places we visit and or stay at and include stories and pictures of my travelling companions.
As I do not depart from Brisbane (Australia) until 2 August, I do not anticipate to many postings until then, however, who knows, I may in the meantime post on rides or events or even the count down to my departure.
