Riding season in the midwurst is a few weeks away, but I'm getting the itch for one more long ride. A few years back I rode to Nova Scotia, over three weeks of fun. Last year I told Nancy and most likely didn't have one more trip in me, but as I'm starting to return to feeling better, a trip out west or maybe to the Icefield Parkway seems to be attracting me in that direction. Other than a trip to Redmond for a MOA rally, I've not ridden in the PNW and never ridden in N. California so there is a lot from which to choose.
I keep a list of potential rallies and events on the calendar. Last year I made it to FART. Hopefully this year will not be a repeat.
What places have you always wanted to experience on a bike but, for one reason or another, haven't made it?
(PS to Mod, if this isn't the correct forum, please move. Thanks.)

I haven't had too many Beemers, I just don't have enough time.

Normally I try to get in a New Years Day ride, but not this year. 17° at dawn, 29° at this moment. If it gets above 32° today, I may still give it a try. At the moment, I'm enjoying sitting in front of a fireplace. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DF7Km1GyW-U
Don't fix it if it ain't broke, don't break it if you can't fix it.

Of course, it's a balmy, sunny 35, and I'm not saying I'll be out for long....  Bud - PEI and the northeast of Canada sounds like a great ride, but if you do head NW instead of NE, we'd be happy to see you (if we're still here!).
