V11 pick up and ride from Indiana to Cali blog.

Biglangster it sounds to me you’ll be handling challenges with a positive outlook, though visualizing your trip does make me pine for my sheepskin seat topper.

Howdy all, we made it to Indiana via a pick up and I got to take the Guzzi for a ride in the rain today.

We spent the afternoon getting gear pack on and we should be on the road Wednesday morning.

Looks like you’re all set for an epic adventure... Have fun, ride safe!!

Gorgeous bike btw

I reckon @Biglangster is staged for a morning departure.  Looks like a huge, clear high pressure dome over the Midwest and across the plains.  Hot in the plains, though . . .

Buon viaggio !

Hey does anyone know how to post pics from Dropbox via your cell phone so it actually posts the pics and not just a link?

"Copy Image Link" --> paste

I don't get that option thru my phone.

Try tapping and holding on the picture, it should bring up a sub menu with a copy option.

That should display. Just be aware it is added to your "Attachments."  Selecting "Copy Image Link" from the menu "hot links" the image to the hosting site.

Post images any way you can, @Biglangster! Post them in your DropBox and I will Link-Copy them to display!

Seems you are rolling something like "Route 66?"

First leg of the trip was from New Carlisle, Indiana to Macon, Missouri via 421 to 55 to 70/36 just over 450 miles. 

I ran out of gas in Barry, Illinois (I don't trust the fuel light) haha.  I carry spare fuel so I was good to go.

I'm camping out at Long Branch state park tonight, it's really and awesome campground.

Tomorrow I'm trying to make it to St. Francis, Kansas.

I still can't figure how to share the pics via mobile so bear with me.
