Another US TOUR -- starting in early '06 LONG TOUR --- I am planning on leaving from Anchorage AK with final destination being KNOXVILLE, TN. This is what I might call my last big adventure. I plan to hit Seattle, Hwy5 to LA, G.Canyon, Reno, Jackson Hole, Salt Lake, Chicago, etc., to name a few to see old friends and old places. I have no family anywhere so it is just me. If nothing else I would look to have a network of folks willing let me call to check in --- especially those good with bikes to help out if I am in a quandry although I am working with Ural for dealers cross country and AAA for off road places for single woman to stay. This is a major undertaking for me but I will not be deterred. Yes, I know it is dangerous, but chit - life is dangerous. Think what a great journal I will have when all is said and done. Photos, notes, people I've met things I've seen and thoughts of just being on the road that I can give to give to friends and fellow bikers who might want to travel some of the same places. This is my spirit quest prior to the end of my life journey. If anyone is out there that might want to ride an hour or two on the way or would be willing to share a meal or say hello --- please, please write to me. I do not want this to be 15,000 miles of lonely. I need advice from those of you that have been on road trips --- things that you know are a MUST to take along. Sites you think are a must too see. Any advice is welcome. Scarlet Kittylee

I live near Cincy... If you're coming from the north, you could rest your bones and grab a meal at my place. Ride safe and enjoy it all!!!

Safe riding to you....have fun!
