Default 883 miles, 5 states, in 4 days

My wife and I just returned from an 883 miles trip across northern NY, down through Vermont, New Hampshire up to Old Orchard Beach Maine, then down to Salem Mass and then home. Saw some scenic sights and had a blast.. Here are a few pics. This was on our 2010 Road King that we upgraded with a Stage II big bore kit and .255 cams
I had wonderful time with the most incredible woman in the world.. when we met 16 years ago we rode together the first summer on our first harley, and have continued every year since. We are now on the second Harley and she is now just buying her own 883 Iron this week!!
Hope you guys like the pics.. it was a blast

Looks like a great trip and lots of fun. Hopefully it was cooler up north, than it has been down here in the south lately. Congrats to the wife on her new bike. See looks like a keeper

You rode 883 miles and now she's getting an 883? Do you see this as a sign from God?
