When we took day rides out of Prairie du Chien we would check out some of the lock and dams when we were next to the river. Lee |

Zitat von Mr. 36654 im Beitrag #4 What's amazing is that people don't seem fazed by the high cost of things like lodging/air fare...they're travelling in absolute droves. How they do it with record debt levels and near-record low levels of savings is a mystery. Lee, your "travelogues" remind me of days gone by...when a dollar bought value. |

Zitat von Mr. 36654 im Beitrag #4 Yes, and the same for restaurant prices. Another bargain was breakfast in a little joint at Keosauqua. Breakfast for the two of us was under $12 and it tasted great. Looked like 3 high school girls running the place that morning. Good to see someone that age doing a good job.

Zitat von BEARR im Beitrag #3 This last year we started to talk about what to do for trips when she can't ride her own bike. We've been taking motorcycle trips since 1978 as our main recreation and Debbie has been riding her own bike on the trips since 1988. Alaska was her first trip riding her own bike :) With our long legs and big feet the RS is out for two up riding. We're not sure if either one of us can handle riding two up again :) We'll figure something out. Maybe Honda will bring the NT1100 DCT to the US.
