The Central ADV Rally offers great riding (both on and offroad) and great people to meet. You can join in organized rides or go it alone -- either way, you won't be disappointed. History buffs will want to consider the Gangster Tour, which will take participants to mob hangouts from the early 20th century.

Check out the Central ADV Rally website for more information.

 I will be leaving Poulsbo WA on the 26th of August and would love to see as much of America as I can in eight days. I'll be in no real hurry but will visit Mt. Rushmore and everything else in the area on or off the beaten path towards Oklahoma City and from there will rest a day or two and continue to Poplar Bluff Missouri for a family reunion and then back to Oklahoma City where I'll be trailering my bike back to Poulsbo Wa. For the most part I'll be camping out and doing only limited night riding unless a major interstate is near by. I'll be most tempted to take the little grey roads on the map but who knows, I could go anywhere on the map.
