Bruce Jolliffe Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Can an essential journey... be an adventure? I just came home from my second near 1000 mile round trip for essential work during lockdown. Made all the more interesting for being non-motorway (to keep in the spirit of adventure). Has anyone else had legitimate excuses for two wheeled road trip fun? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Earache Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 At my old job, I rode lots of multi-state rides to attend meetings rather than flying there. IF tghe meeting was in an area thatr I wanted to ride to, I just headed there the weekend before the meeting on the bike. Rode to Connecticut and upstate New York a couple of times and did Chicago often on the bike. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boboneleg Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 I hate motorways on a bike, i’ll travel all the way across France without touching motorways. The only thing you see on a motorway are dangerous drivers 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTreme Posted June 27, 2020 Share Posted June 27, 2020 Absolutely! Last year the motorcycle travel author Derek Mansfield rode from the UK to the Ukraine on business. On a Moto Guzzi! And he's in his 70's! To me, that's fucking hardcore! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tym Posted June 29, 2020 Share Posted June 29, 2020 The only adventure i get is being able to make it through the night without having to get up and take a piss 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
