OK Bill and I are in the very early stages of planning this trip for summer of '11

Early as in he is retired and just needs to know when I want to plan it , so he wont plan another trip during that time frame ..

I put in for my days around October this year , for next year ..

Looking at three weeks on the road ..

My biggie will be saving the money for the trip ..

Open invite to one or two who may be interested ..

Need a passport and a Harley ..

Figure on about $100 per day for food , gas and lodging ..

He came in Tuesday from Fairbanks ..

19 days 10,200 miles

and he is ready to return anytime ..

Haven't decided. One of three.
Historic east coast
Black Hills and Yellowstone with a dose of Colorado thrown in
Northern Pacific Coast Highway

Red,
Just got back from Yellowstone. It was cool and everything.... I'm kinda anti social and got tired of all the people... but it was nice scenery. The North area is more terrain and animals (and way less crowded) while the Southern area is more the gysers and all the mineral color. Yellowstone Lake was pretty.
Personally I liked Teton National Park ( just south, shares a border with Yellowstone) better.
By the way, it was 20 bucks a bike to enter the park, which covered Teton park also and is good for 7 consecutive days. One of our party had a Pass that would allow 3 passengers but the gate doesn't honor that for two bikes.
If you plan to stay anywhere near the park, early reservations are a great idea.
