    Reddit thread: I quit my job and rode my motorcycle through 48 States in 100 days

    Watch out for tow ropes and quickly braking cars

    Would be lovely to have the chance to ride through so much varied and beautiful country.

    I have just read of a similar trip that a chap did on his Vespa 250. He took 3 months, 10,000m. Shows you dont need a ' 1200 Tourer' to fill a dream, just the right atitude. Incidently, the Vespa rider got one punture, the day after finishing the trip.
    His plug repair kit didn't do the job and he had to get a tow 5 miles from his home.

    So keen. Been thinking about doing this for awhile now. But not quite that extreme. 2/3 weeks. Hire a bike, LA - NY- Miami back to LA, and anywhere else inbetween.

    Anyone else keen ?

    Very interesting read. Planning on backpacking around Europe next year, might have to do this afterwards, funds permitting.
