I am going on a bike trip tomorrow to southern Oregon. This will be my first long trip on the bike. It is going to be a 950 miles, five days, three stops, two saddle bags, and one back pack journey. There is truly something about the road that calls you.

I purchased my Kawasaki Vulcan last November and have had the opportunity to observe and learn a lot from the seat of my bike. So I thought this would be a great time to share some of the lessons and thoughts I have had from Vulcan. I will also be making regular twitter/facebook status updates and sending in pictures of the things I observe along the way (this is so my wife knows I am safe).

I will be headed out Tuesday and be stopping in Salem to be with my brother and his family. Wednesday morning I will be on my way south to Medford, hanging with my good friend Ryan and his wife and new daughter. On the way back home I will be stopping off in downtown Vancouver, WA to attend Mort’s wedding. Hopefully see some of you there. I sure hope they have motorcycle parking at the park.

See you on the highway (that is the internet highway).
