I find it hard to believe that you have been writing this BLOG for one (1) year.!!. This past year seems to have simply flown by. Where does the time go.?.
Happy, Happy Birthday to your BLOG :-)
I am extremely proud of you.!.!.!. You have continued to write in your same interesting style and of course, the pics you have taken are absolutely wonderful. xx
It is obvious that people like what you are presenting in your BLOG, and I know that makes you very happy.
Keep up the good work, Darl’n ...
Wishing you a safe and interesting journey today. xx Kz…………………………
Chessie – Thanks, but I don’t think I will be on the road for another year! I do wonder what I will do with the blog after I have finished the tour. We will see.... Having regular followers is a good thing indeed!
Geoff – This blogging thing really is a lot of fun!
Axel – Thanks. As you know, it takes time to do, but for me, I enjoy sharing what I am seeing and doing. Your post about a*hole made me laugh!
IHG – Thanks!
Randy –You are most welcome.
mq01 – Thank you!
Jackie – It has gone by very fast indeed! I cannot believe it has been a year since the first post. I think people do enjoy reading it. It is the same thing with the tour – I can’t believe I am more than half way now – the time has gone so quickly - probably a sign of me getting older! Kz.
This blog was originally started to record a five month, 21000 mile tour of the US on my Harley-Davidson. I continue to use this blog to record my own motorcycling adventures, wherever they may be, along with my thoughts and opinions about motorcycling generally.
Having devoted most of my adult life to being a ‘company man’, the transition to the next phase of my life away from the construction industry was always going to include some challenges. Planning and then making my dream trip to explore America on my Harley-Davidson proved to be the ideal vehicle for clearing my mind of old ways of thinking and being. I rode 21,475 miles, in 27 US states in four-and-a-half months.
My motorcycling trips have continued, with journeys across much of Europe, New Zealand, North Africa and Cuba.
A few years ago, I set up and now run Tour1, which takes riders on Harley-Davidson Authorised tours across Europe. See www.tour1.co.uk.
I live just north of London in the UK.
A 2006 Road King called 'The Leading Ladies' due to the portraits of ten 1940's and 1950's actresses painted on the bike. This is the motorcycle I use to ride through America on.
My Custom Harley 'Tradewinds'
Called 'Tradewinds' this bike has a H-D engine but almost everything else is custom, made specifically for the bike.
My Custom Harley 'Amelia'
Built in 2012, this is a seventies style traditional chopper, with considerable engraving and a tremendous paint scheme

US Tour - My Favourites Places I Went To....
It is difficult to choose, but here is my list of the highlights of my US tour, in the order I saw them in....
31. Back roads and small towns anywhere.
32. Meeting really nice people, in just about all of the places I have been.
33. The camaraderie of bikers. Everywhere, US.
