Tour The U.S. With A Motorcycle!
The graduation commencement is on June 10, 2006, Saturday. I will get one week of break and I will need to return to summer quarter to finish the remaining units left.
But before I return back to school, I really need to get my mind off the textbooks during the short period. I’ve decided with the encouragement of my father, that I should plan a week long road trip across many states in a car. Sounds unrealistic? Well, read on.
My best friend will visit Los Angeles on June 8th and will attend my graduation ceremony and a wedding ceremony (concidentally the same day) on the 10th. Daniel is a pioneer. He has actually driven from Los Angeles to New York last year to get home and I was impressed. And I am really hoping that he can join me in this adventure and partake in the exploration of famous restaurants and state landmarks across states. How exciting! If time permits, I want to delve into all fifteen (+/-4) states!
This whole adventure idea was brought up Tuesday night when my dad asked, “How come you don’t like to travel?” Few seconds later, I replied with a ‘don’t make me’ look, “That’s it dad, I’m driving to New York city after the graduation date.” That must have been the answer he wanted to hear because he smiled and supports me all the way. ![]()
I’m going to start my planning this weekend and decide if the one week timeframe is sufficient for the roundtrip. Unfortunately summer quarter begins on Monday so I must return back within the week. Such vacation is like a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity so long hours of planning will be invested into this project.
Regarding the blog title, “Tour The U.S. With A Motorcycle!” I’m thinking of completing the CA-MSP and get the Motorcycle license from the CA DMV. I really want to get a weekend-drive motorcycle. A used bike for beginners ranges around $1,500 to $2,300 which is affordable. I’ll keep you posted about the bike at a later date.
