Toronto to New Orleans via Deals Gap, back via Blue Ridge

Post by Max Continuous »

Over the past winter, many of you on here have given me some good advice regarding Top Cases, packing for trips, etc and Dr Strangelove for providing me with some info on New Orleans, post Katrina.

I recently rode the 6000 km return trip with friends on my Roadster. As soon as I have the back tire replaced, I will be off again. I have made a video that pretty much tells the story of the trip. Grab a coffee, it is 13 minutes long but I think you will enjoy it. I hope you will anyway. ;)

It will take a few minutes to load, there is a smaller resolution version in the "video gallery" section of my website also.

Great job on the video. I appreciate time and effort it takes to do that and get it posted. Looks like a trip with lasting memories. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Guys

There are a few members here on the board who's pictures and posts have inspired me to start documenting my rides. Gypsy RR, in particular. Todays technology helps too.
