I'm always looking to learn from people touring so....

Is there anyone currently touring that you are following online? I met Jake when he came though my area and have been following his post on facebook. "jakedoesamerica"

Not following any individuals, but before I did a month plus long trip on Pacific Coast last early summer, I followed the posts on Crazy Guy on a Bike for some people that were there a couple weeks to a month before me. That way I could check to see what they were saying about the roads, weather, campgrounds, and anything else I might want to know about. Later when I was riding along, quite often I would say to myself, gee I saw a photo of that a couple weeks ago....

I was truly inspired by "Bike Grease and Coffee."

These guys stayed with me when they were passing through, and I've been following them since. Kind of different to most tourers.

I'm more of a learn by doing kind of guy....

I've tried meeting a couple people from Crazyguy by riding out to meet them on the CA coast....Never found them.

Met quite a few folks while camping/touring that had journals on Crazyguy or something on the web.That's great fun.
