Scenic Utah: Three backroad byways, One Harley
I rather like Green River, a town in central Utah...for about 10 hours max. It is roughly 100 miles from anywhere else, and has became an extended rest stop for travelers on I-70.
FULL ARTICLE: U.S. 136 Missouri: A Harley-Davidson tour between two rivers
We have some big rivers in this big country of ours, and the two of the biggest are the Mississippi and Missouri, both starting up by the Canadian border and flowing south into the Gulf of Mexico...
FULL ARTICLE: The Grand Motorcycle Tour: Preparing for a couple months on the road
As we get older we think of retiring, of taking it easy, of finally enjoying the fruits of our labors...Or maybe it’s just time to go get on the road.
U.S. 136 Missouri: A Harley-Davidson tour between two rivers
We have some big rivers in this big country of ours, and the two of the biggest are the Mississippi and Missouri, both starting up by the Canadian border and flowing south into the Gulf of Mexico...
FULL ARTICLE WITH IMAGES: Cruisin Cape Cod on two Harley-Davidson wheels
“You smell that?” asked Bruce, looking over at me from his Ultra Classic. He was referring to the pungent aroma of marijuana scenting the early afternoon air...
Traveling Michigan's Upper Peninsula and Copper harbor on a FLH
One of the things I like about this underpaid and underappreciated job is all the advice I get from readers about where to go. Whether it is for great roads, terrific scenery, or just good food. I’d been hearing about Copper Harbor for years, about the roads getting there, about the views, about the history, and even about a place to eat. But since the place wasn’t actually on the way to anywhere, being at the end of a dead-end road, I never quite made it...
FULL ARTICLE: A Victory Vision quest for American Mettle
Vision and indomitable spirit forged American mettle. Travelling west, pioneers found an ocean paradise via the desolate desert heat. In honor of that spirit I rode to Laughlin, Nevada, on a new American legend, the Victory Vision motorcycle. Our journey will take us from Palm Springs to Slab City to Joshua Tree, through the Mojave Desert to Laughlin.
FULL ARTICLE A Dyna and a Road King take on the Southwest loop from Santa Fe
September is a fantastic month for a motorcycle trip; school starts and those minivans are back on carpool duty, leaving the roads and national parks less crowded and more enjoyable.
Columbia River Gorge on a H-D Softail
Cruising 250 miles from Astoria to Biggs, Oregon.
The H-D Ultra Cruises Montana's Big Sky Country
Our Montana ride began with two thunderstorms. Not good omens. We were finally on dry pavement, our rainsuits repacked and the Ultra’s cruise control set on 75...
The Civil War Ride from a Harley Saddle
One Man's reflection on an American History
Riding the Allegheny Mountains on a Harley Ultra
I’m a sucker for castles. Big castles, little castles, old castles, new castles, you put a “castle” on the map and I’m going there. Which is how Blue Boy, as my Harley Ultra is known, and I ended up in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia...
Crossing the Ozark Mountains on an Ultra Classic Electra Glide
I could feel the disgruntlement of the Harley-Davidson Ultra Classic Electra Glide, the one with all the options, as we swung on to I-155. Her sentiment was that I might as well be in a Winnebago if I wanted to go on the Interstate...
Riding Across Central New England on an Electra Glide
The Ultra and I are on top of Lincoln Gap, some 2,500 feet above the Atlantic Ocean, which lies about 120 miles to the east. We are surrounded by the thick woods of Vermont’s Green Mountain National Forest...
Wolfe Island and other island pleasures
Sunday is my favorite day of the week because Sunday is the day my wife and I get the Harley out, polish it up, and go for a leisurely cruise. Living where we do in the Thousand Islands region of Northern New York State, we are...
Route 66; A Harley-Davidson Guided Tour
it’s early in our cross-country trip and we have already ridden through a monsoon-like rainstorm. But this is adventure! It’s what we came for, to ride the entire 2,400-odd miles of Route 66 from Chicago to Santa Monica, California.
Idaho: The Harley rider's Gem State
Idaho’s nickname, the Gem State, is just about perfect. Our five-day tour of Idaho was just about perfect, too. We happened to pick a week in July that was unseasonably hot, with temperaturesometimes over 100, not a drop of rain anywhere, and 1,000 miles of gorgeous roads ahead of us.
Mother Road: A Harley-Davidson Guided Tour of Route 66
It’s the morning of day five on our Route 66 tour and we might see tornados today. From the lobby of the motel in Oklahoma City, we’re watching the TV weathercaster point to his Doppler radar screen, and specifically, the tornados touching down all around us. And there are lots of them
Praising Arizona: Riding the Grand Canyon State
As luck would have it, Harley-Davidson and Best Western International hotels invited American Rider on a multi-journalist press junket in Arizona to kick off a new joint marketing venture between the companies and sample some of the possible rides and lodging available through their recently introduced Gold Crown Club International Ride Rewards Program (see sidebar).
Three Harleys and a Victory: Lake Isabella
Every year our esteemed editor thinks it would be a good idea to gather up three or four of his contributors, round up some interesting motorcycles, and whisk them all off to some magical place where they can sip the nectar of understanding, and contemplate the meaning of life on the road. As well as evaluate the motorcycles. And get some good pictures. And not bust his chintzy travel budget.
