I grew up just off of Rt 6 in Upstate Pennsylvania, I know it was, at one point a transcontinental route, and have always wanted to make the trip. Now that I have the NC, I'd like to get it properly outfitted, and make this trip.
I'd like to start in P-Town, as it's close to where my girlfriend is from, and head west...and then turn around and head back maybe on I-40 or I-10 and stop by some of old haunts out west.
What kind of timeline am I looking at for this kind of mileage, so I can take the time off work? I've driven 2,300 miles by car, but never a trip like this on a bike. I am interested in the thoughts from those of you who have gone similar distances. I think I can handle the packing list, but might look for advice on spare parts and what not to bring along.
Also, as an added bonus I would like to make this trip to raise some money for The Wounded Warrior Project...as a wounded warrior myself, I'd like to help out my brothers and sisters and show them my support.
