Some months ago I made a plan to ride my moto from New York City through to San Francisco. Much as transpired since then and I now have a new upgraded route.

My route / itinerary now looks like this:-

• Day 1 -- New York City to Adirondacks
• Day 2 -- Adirondacks to Toronto (via Niagra Falls)
• Day 3 -- REST in Toronto
• Day 4,5,6,7,8 -- Toronto to Kansas City over the top of the Great Lakes (Yeah !!)
• Day 9,10,11 -- REST in Kansas City
• Day 12,13 -- Kansas City to Bolder, CO
• Day 14 -- REST, visit Colorado School of Mines (cause I'm an Engineer of the Mining kind...)
• Day 15,16,17,18,19 -- Roam the mountains and enjoy the twisty bits on my moto and generally aim towards the Grand Canyon area
• Day 20 -- Grand Canyon (if i'm not there already)
• Day 21 -- Grand Canyon to Las Vegas
• Day 22,23,24,25 -- REST in Lost-and-Vague-As (aka Las Vegas) for DefCon and hopefully catch up with a few old faces. [July 30 though August 2]
• Day 26 -- Las Vegas to LA LA Land.
• Day 27,28 -- REST in LA
• Day 29,30 -- LA to San Francisco via Highway 1
• Day 31,32 -- REST in San Francisco
• Day 33,34 -- Arrange sale of my trusty moto :( with an SF local moto dealer on consignment, sad but true, someone is going to end up with a great adventure touring bike though !!

  After all this I actually need to get myself back to NYC for a short bit to look after a few loose ends and most importantly have a farewell party for my NYC friends before I head back to Sydney, Australia and hang with fellow RATS.

  So THIS is the plan, long, exciting and probably full of surprises along the way. If you want to know where I am either check out the map, check out my Twitter or just call me if you know my number.
