Solo coast to coast ride, summer 2011

The achievement of a lifetime for a computer teacher to ride her motorcycle coast to coast alone in the United States of America..

Picture
It was such an amazing personal achievement that now I want to ride further distances. I am a woman who had a dream to ride her motorcycle from California to Massachussetts. The dream became a reality when I shipped my motorcycle to Los Angeles California to Arlene Battishill's house. She is the co-founder and creator of GoGo Gear. Then, on July 4, 2011, I flew out to LA and I started riding with Arlene up the Pacific Coast Highway. We traveled in the beautiful state of California. Once we arrived back in Los Angeles, I headed east alone to ride my Triumph Bonneville from Los Angeles California to Worcester Massachussetts. This was done because I had a dream and the strength to do it. I accomplished my personal goal by riding my motorcycle alone across America 5,944 miles/9,566 kilometers.

I am including a link here showcasing the rides for 2011 and 2012 using a different design.  I have a class where I show my students how to create websites.   I like to show them the difference with available development tools.  The old website uses WIX with an amazing animated look and feel.  If interested, please click here.
