New Orleans and Amerivespa, June 9-16, 2014.
The one on the right tracks the Amerivespa long ride, around 150 miles. Destination: New Orleans. Target: Amerivespa. I liked the gulf coast of Florida, but I was riding with a goal. The Big Apple was a familiar comfort, now I wanted to explore the neon-lit nighttime streets of...
Florida Part 2, Return From The Keys! June 4-8, 2014.
I have to admit something up front… Maybe it was the rain, but I was more than happy to turn back north....
Florida Part 1, To The Keys! May 31 – June 3, 2014
I forgot to screencap my map at Key West, it was so rainy. After recouping in the safety and comfort of friends, new and old, in Atlanta, it was time to continue adventuring again. My sights were set on a big state, Florida, and admittedly I wasn’t sure I...
Atlanta, GA, May 24-30, 2014.
Time for some down time, in my childhood hometown!...
Penland with the Gratz family, Asheville, and I’m Running Away to Join the Circus, May 20-23, 2014.

Skyline Drive, Dogwood Scooter Rally, and the Blue Ridge Parkway, May 17-20, 2014.

Washington D.C., May 14-16, 2014.
Let me just start by saying this isn’t going to read so much like a tour of America’s capital so much as…Grace and I hang out and hit some bars. We know each other from middle school, and I’ve visited her in DC many times (even by scoot), so...
Philadelphia, PA, May 11-14, 2014.
I took the free-est route out of the city: Brooklyn Bridge to Holland Tunnel, then on the Pulaski Skyway out of Newark. The Giraffe met up with me in Elizabeth, NJ, and we rode down Rt 1 till the tolls stopped, and Interstated the rest of the way. I...
Providence to Brooklyn, May 5-11, 2014.
180 miles, not including ferry. I know, really pushing the limits of my comfort zone here. I’ve been thinking of how to compose this for a while, especially since it’s still very close and I don’t want too much overlap with the drawings. I’d like to include a map,...
