Again, that has left 25 times across the country (border to border) so impressive. I am surprised you like to do the same route over and over as I would personally get board with that. There is way too much to see out there in one lifetime for me to do repeats if I can reasonably avoid it, or at least not so close together.
No sir, that is 27 coast to coast. Key West and Illinois were vacation trips. And I still ride every day, rain or shine at 76 years and still strong with a titanium left hip, titanium right femur reinforcement and a plate and three screws holding the top of my right tibia together.
Skip ahead to 45 seconds in. Stephen Johns was a terrific musician and martial artist but very verbose at times.
