The price of going somewhere this Memorial Day weekend is up. Gasoline is closing in on $4 a gallon and a major airline wants to charge you $15 to check a bag. But then the cost of staying home for Memorial Day is up too. The ingredients of a backyard barbecue are up 6 percent over last year.However, there is one constant in Memorial Day -- its purpose. That remains unchanged and it's free --

Those who love to ride will tell you that it’s all about the road, not the destination. Arizona is home to many great rides, for those new to motorcycles and those who have logged miles from Patagonia to the Petrified Forest. Day trips or weekend

The sun was just starting to break as a white waffle of steam rose through the small slit in the top of the plastic coffee cup which was sitting on the table. Even though there was little to no breeze at the moment, I found myself fixated on the steam as it snaked its way left and right and continued to climb higher and higher. Almost as if it was searching for the correct path in life.

Day 1: Boise, ID to Clarkston, WA via Enterprise, OR was a 340-mile day. I-84 out of Boise to Baker City was a stuporslab drone, but SR-203 to La Grande sure was a nice change of pace.

John's Motorcycle Journey

2007-10-23T06:45:00.000-07:00

John Brown Sold my business last fall and am currently fulfilling a DREAM to tour the country on 2 wheels! This is a "head clearing" trip...or as I like to say, "I'm not retired, just getting re-wired!"
