It's day nine, and somewhere on a one-lane road through Ohio farmland — following a friend I'd known for two years but never actually met — I figured out I'd been doing this whole trip wrong. +++ 📸 Follow along on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bugmotochannel/ +++ The plan was simple: stay on Route 20, the longest road in the country, all the way to the Route 20 sign in Kenmore Square. Turns out, the parts of this trip I'll actually remember aren't the route. They're the detours. Baxter a few days back. And today, lunch with Damon, his brand-new Speed Twin, and a pointless ride to a town called Upper Sandusky that we never even reached because of a closed road... Damon's channel is @TheFranticNomad ... go say hi! 🐞 Get Veridian Cruise control for your Himalayan 450, or for other bikes.
