Day Twenty Six & Seven

8,600 miles later, finally home.

I’ve finally made it to my new home after two days of California riding. Inyokern to Bakersfield to Lompoc to Grover Beach to San Francisco.

With the trip being over I now have time to reflect back. What an incredible journey. Thank you all for following us along. With this time together, the six of us have cemented our friendship and love for adventure riding forever. It was one of the best decisions of my life to explore the states by motorcycle. I have no doubts the other five would say any differently. I know each of us has our own highlights and tribulations to share. The stories we all have will last a lifetime, maybe longer.

We all thank our friends, family, and loved one’s for supporting all of us in taking this trip. Without everyone else around us, this would not have been possible.

To all those thinking of taking their own motorcycle journey, do it now! Feel free to contact any of us for any lessons we learned while on the road.

Next up three-five years from now, Alaska. Stay tuned…
