    Midwest. Considered flyover... flat... nothing to see. But there's beauty in the vast open fields, the cornfields. Guess I miss it after moving away!

    You probably find the interstates a bit boring, but these videos are no less interesting for people from places with a totally different type of geography. Looking forward to the rest of this series.

    Nice car at the gas stop! Haven't been out that way since '75 (drove to Wichita a few years back but went out 40 to OKC). I remember heading into St. Louis after dark, taking an exit and then seeing I was heading into -- East St. Louis! Turned around right quick. I remember that view of the Royals/Arrowhead stadium complex too.

    i dont know how you guys do it. the fatigue would kill me. maybe I need a different bike. maybe im just too old and broken down. your sister is a cutie! I like you guys relationship dynamic. what are your bikes and are they liquid cooled and do they vibrate much/clear mirrors etc?

      I'm riding a 2016 KTM 1290 Super Adventure while she's on a 2021 Ducati Multitrada S Touring. Both bike are liquid-cooled twins. Her bike is 1198cc L-twin making 150hp while mine is 1301cc V-twin making 160hp (in stock formation). Both bikes are super comfortable and no mirror vibration on either.

    The Pony Express Museum North of Kansas City in St Joseph Missouri is looking for "young, skinny, wiry fellows, not over eighteen, expert riders, willing to risk death daily, orphans preferred". You may not meet all the requirements but it never hurts to apply for a job that pays $25/week.
