Sitting here thinking about how many different states I've ridden *miles* in.So i tallied them up.Thought it may be interesting to see how many other riders out here have done. Here's my list of 17: Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Kentucky ,Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin. To keep it real to the *Hayabusa* 11 of the states were on a Hayabusa and or B King.

Been through Missouri, Kansas and Oklahoma, motorcycle was not unloaded though.
US ? None.

Australia is a bit different to the US, the state I’m in is more than 2.5 times the size of Texas, so only 3 states and 1 territory here.

Countries? 9 or 10 I think.
9 or 10 countries is the coolest thing..
 
Well none of North east USA and Alaska. NE mostly due to gun laws traveling.
California is easy compared to NY.

Washington, Oregon, California, Nevada New Mexico, Arizona , Colorado, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Mississippi, Louisiana, Florida, Alabama, Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Kansas, Virginia, Utah, Illinois, Kentucky West Virginia.

I figured your list would be great. I forgot to list a few miles in Virginia, Maryland and DC.
 
Some of y'all gents have gotten some serious miles in. Bravo! My list is Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, SC, NC, Tennesse, Virginia, Maryland and Pennsylvania. Now, I'll up the ante a little. How many states have y'all gone over 150 MPH in?

You see, back in 2012 when my Pawpaw passed, I rode my old Daytona 955i down to Pensacola, Florida from Blacksburg, Virginia. He was an avid rider until he had to have hip surgery in his late 70s. I come from a riding family. Motorcycling is in my blood. Any who, my dad, a close family friend and myself rode so we could escort the funeral service. Well, during the trip I decided to hit at least 150, at some point, in each state I passed through. I can say I've gone 150 or more in all the aforementioned states except Pennsylvania.

In other news, that was also the longest trip I've made in over 30 years of riding. I'm hoping to plan a big trip on the Busa in 2027 for my Big 50th. My initial thought is to head north and tick off the rest of the states I haven't ridden on the east coast. Plus, I have a buddy in Vermont. So I could head up the coast, hit the little states and then bank left up in Maine and swing back down into Vermont. Stop at my buddy's place and catch a ride with him. Then cruise back down through the mountains of NY and Pennsylvania back to the casa. Then as the years pass by I slowly go west. I think that would be pretty groovy. And I'm sure if that trip up the coast was too happen, I could potentially cross roads with other members from the .org in that region. Which would be rather brilliant!

Well, I hope everyone is well. It's ridiculously cold and just began snow flurrying here, so someone please post some ride pics so I can live vicariously through them lol! Y'all have a great day!
 
That’s awesome! I’m a little surprised you didn’t do it in Pennsylvania, it sometimes feels like that’s the speed limit there lol.
The only reason is because my trip to Penn was back many moons ago when I was 16 and I was riding an 82 GS550. My dad and I rode up to watch some flat track racing in or near Green Castle if I recall. It'd have been a serious downhill with a tailwind to get that bugger to 150 haha! I haven't been up that way since then. But it may just happen come the next warm season as PA ain't really that far up 81.
