3000 mile motorcycle ride: I made it to Paris!!!

Paris Courthouse

Day 1 into a 3000 mile ride   Never thought I'd ride to Paris!!!! Paris Illinois that is.   Great road Illinois route #1.  It feels good to be on roads that I have never traveled .

My Intersection of America

Well I made it to  Lake Geneva, Wisconsin.   Another 245 miles and I'll be in Merrill in Northern Wisconsin.  It was a fun long ride today, I pushed it and rode around 500 miles from Clarksville.   I'm normally a 350 to 400 miles a day kinda guy, but I've been wanting to ride this route for a long time now.  Evansville to Vincennes Indiana; crossing over to Illinois there.   Then Route #1 all the way up to Chicago, moving west to route #47 to skirt the outskirts of the city ending up here in Lake Geneva.  My goal was to make it to Wisconsin, mission accomplished.

Sex Toys Anyone

I stopped at the intersection of America or what I like to call it.  Turn right on highway 36 go to Denver, turn left go to Indianapolis, or go straight to Chicago.  Going straight today thank you very much.

At a Gas station that I stopped at the house next store had a sign giving away free cucumbers.  You have to love that mid west people are so friendly.  Now if it was me my sign would have read free sex toys.  The things that a a person can think up.  Just kidding trying to check if people are actually reading anything that I actually write.

Was a great ride even the lady the cut me off in Chicago was a lot of fun.  We both got to practice our verbal hand gestures.  Because of traffic I was stuck behind her for about 30 miles at each stop light we would smile and wave.  The hand gestures would get friendlier as the miles went by.  When she finally turned off, it was nothing more than a friendly wave.  I have to admit though she was still an ass.
