yeah me either.. i would do either.. i would like the adventure of a long ride but i also would like the flexibility of trailering.. like last year when we went to the gap we trailered down there.. that way you are not tired of riding by the time you get there and you are fresh to hit the dragon.. always trailer to track days.. have the bike all ready just roll off the trailer, tech it and relax before the rider's meeting / first session.. don't need pressure or stress trying to get it ready.. its supposed to be a fun day not a day of work..

but i have 2 road trips i want to do all riding no trailering:

1. East Coast to West Coast - start in like New Hampshire end up in like San Diego

2. Europe - start in England, check out isle of man, stay at b&bs, ride the tunnel under the english channel, france, germany, austria, italy, etc. etc.

Riding all the way is great if you've got no fixed time constraints and can stay off the highways. If not, to me it's just a waste of tires and money and wear and tear on the bike, not to mention boring.

My whole trip this June will be trailered, MA NH MA TN SC FL MA

I don't think you can drive through there. Only ferry your vehicle on the train.
