I am not trying to be obnoxious, I just haven't been on any long distance motorcycle trips (all day, multi-day trips). I've been on plenty of long distance (multi-day) car trips and frankly, don't enjoy them very much. I'm more of a get from A to B as quickly as possible type of traveler in a car.
I have a brother that lives in Kansas, a sister that lives in Texas. I'm in Utah.
I plan to purchase a motorcycle before the end of this year, and I've been thinking how fun it would be to go on long distance trips on it. I've had quite a few motorcycles in the past and have loved riding, but now my stable is empty and has been for a number of years.
I'm wondering now if I am just kidding myself, will my motorcycle experience be similar to being in a car - where I can't wait until I've arrived, I am concerned that I may not enjoy the trip to either of these locations, because they are so darn far away, even on a motorcycle.
Am I way off on this? I hope so, I am hoping most of you enjoy long distance in a motorcycle where you hate it in a car.
Do you have advice for me?
If long distance isn't much different, then my selection of motorcycle will be more focused for enjoyment around town and up to 200 - 300 miles.
