Florence Oregon to Eastport Maine. 3800 mi
1988. Was about 19 y/o.
With 2 other guys.
I was new to touring. Didnt even do a fully loaded shakedown ride.
The people in Eastport gave us a lobster dinner on the house and Bangor Daily did an article on us.
95 mi per day. If it were up to me we'd have slowed the pace down and looked around more, but we compromise.
