Closer and Closer

Our motorcycle vacation to the West is getting closer. On Friday I will post pictures and a list of things we are taking. This should be a fun experience (posting things, etc...).

We are getting more and more committed to going into Canada to Banff and Jasper National Parks. Glacier is a definite now. Yellowstone looks like a resting place. Too many people there. And I want to get away from peeps! Just Wilma, me, and the bike. Yep. A true vacation.

As far as the Alaska trip. Well, we are thinking this one through. We may go with a larger bike such as the Yamaha Stratoliner. It is air cooled, (I like that!) and has fuel injection (also good). Plus, I can get a better bike for less $$ than a Goldwing. So, a couple of years out. We'll see what happens. I like the Stratoliner because it is a Yamaha and because it comes in at 1900cc's. Big is good.

Of course, if  I had my druthers, I'd have a bike like this:
