Oh what a lovely time I had in San Francisco, it’s now time to move on and the first step is not a big one. I’m going south along the coast towards Santa Cruz before turning inland to go and see Google campus and then stay the night with another new friend that I acquired…

San Francisco
After a day in Bolinas enjoying the best of the hippy culture Cascadia has to offer I leave and cross the Golden Gate Bridge. Two things did strike me while I was doing so. First of all, I think the Golden Gate Bridge is the one I have seen more often blown up in movies…
Washington State
Another border crossing and another opportunity to feel anxious. In the end, as usual, there are no problems and I, quite literally, sail through. The plan for the day is to get across from Victoria to Port Angeles, where my novelty twilight tour will start, then go to Neath Bay to learn more about the…
Vancouver Island
Out of the city and back in the wilderness of Canada. Vancouver was good but now it’s off to the Island and see if all the people that told me good things about it were right. First thing, as I queue for the ferry, I meet this bunch of bikers that are going my same…

Around Vegas
Bye bye Zion, for sure it’s just farewell and not goodbye as I think this magic place will see more of me. Only a few hours move to the city where everything goes, Las Vegas. The road there is as desert as I’ve encountered so far, even the welcome to Nevada sign is in the…
Aspen
After seeing Red Rocks I head for the Interstate and, I have to admit I70 is a super road, the scenery is great and it’s not your standard strip of tarmac covered in cars. After being politely refused entrance in two campsites on the way down the hill, they had a bear problem and only…
First bite at the Rockies
After a nice night in the campsite is time to get going with the first mountain day of the trip. I double back to the town and then turn south to get to the park entrance. Along the way I have the first encounter with wildlife of the day. First it’s prairies dogs, cute, and…
