If you are planning to ride in CA you better add a helmet to your list or you will be buying one here if you want to continue to ride.
We have a 2000 Harley Road King. It is a great travelin' bike.

I wanted a nice bare bones rigid that sat real low to the ground and that was chopped out. If I am standing up the seat is at the same level as my knee cap. My butt is like 18 or 20" from the pavement.
Here are the only photos I can find that will give you a perspective of the bike in relationship to a human...
She is still sorta standing over the bike

Nice bike Billy, but I have a request on behalf of everyone who loves you...PLEASE WEAR A HELMET!
My brother was killed by a drunk driver on his harley and he wasn't wearing his helment. It was the 1st time he didn't wear it. Stay safe.

Sounds like a great trip! My husband and I met in California and drove up to Seattle then down again to Colorado before going the rest of the way to New York!
We had a fabulous time, hit Yosemite, Yellowstone, etc.
You will have a wonderful time between the riding, the shops, and the friends.
Have a wonderful and safe trip.
Don't forget the helmet, and glad you are bringing the toothbrush and deodorent!!

One of the most amazing sites we saw were the Cliff Dwellings at Mesa Verde - haunting, humbling, awesome. If you're in the area, it's worth a whole day!

But I do have a few homes and folks I have to see on this trip like Charlee and BK. Then Lisa (Quilt addict) and I have a date to go do some serious dumpster diving and thrift store hopping!!!
I have had offers from quite a few members to stay at your homes while I am on the trip and trust me I will take you guys up on it!! And as soon as I figure the route out then I can see who I will be staying with. But I do want to try and to meet as many members I can while I am out on the road and I am hoping to be able to see as many LQS I can!!
