Where: Los Angeles to Chicago (Route 66)
When, how long and how far: August 2010, two weeks and 4,000km
Comments: Hired a Harley from Eagle Riders, and followed what remains of the old Route 66, camping and staying in cheap hotels. It was hot and rainy at times. The HD went well. No dramas except for two brushes with the law: ended ok.
