Rode from norfolk VA to Cleveland OH in one day. Fished with my dad and brother. Headed out to MT, which took me 9 days. Spent a week visiting my brother in Great Falls MT.

Had new tires put on in Great Falls, and five rear spokes replaced. They didn't true the rim, but fixed it after i took it back.. They also didn't balance the tire correctly, which I didn't find till I got about 2 hrs away, and finally rode hwy speeds. Got it fixed in Rapid City, but lost a day of riding.

I spent a week riding back to Norfolk. I didn't keep track of times or daily mileage, but you can see most of my start stop points on the google map.
