I've hit 40 states - multiple times over 40 years - on many different bikes - and many different temperature extremes and lots of nasty weather along the way - covering over 300,000 miles. Yes, I'm a touring rider!

Was he on a Goldwing?
I see a lot of older couples on Goldwings that ride all over this country. I know we Harley riders do it too but I do seem to pass an awful lot of them on those big plastic boxes. Good for them, I say.

35k miles on my '05, I'm sure I was touring somewhere during that time.
