FLIGHT OF THE MAGPIE
A solo 7,929 Mile Loop of the U.S. in August/September 2020.
WHAT IS THE Flight of the Magpie?
A solo 7,929 mile motorcycle trip around the United States. Experiencing as many Ghost Towns, Scenic Byways, National Parks as I can smash into three weeks. The Goal? To explore a part of the US I have never experienced. I’ve been all over the Western States the last 5 years, but I’ve never see the Atlantic Ocean, I’ve never been the Midwest and the South. All I’ve ever known is stereotypes and depiction of the “East” in media. There’s so much of our country that people don’t deem “interesting”. The parts no one things is worthy of talking about and those are the parts I think make up the “feeling” of a place. The only way to truly know the feeling of that place then is tor experience it myself.
MEET THE RIDER
I’ll be taking my trusty 2016 Honda CB500x, named Briareos.
