Finale: MS Making Miles Across States
The Lincoln Highway adventure added 3.030 miles (4.850 kms) to her riding record.
An annotated Pictorial Saga about the journey will be put together and posted in an Album on this Forum in a few weeks from now – similar to the ones for Route 66 and the Dixie Highway
MS had 8.712 original miles on her when I bought her in 2007.
Now her odometer stands at 19.794.
So together we traveled about 11.100 miles (17.500 kms) in 2007, 2008 and 2011.
When riding the old almost always 2-lane historic highways of Route 66, the Dixie Highway and the Lincoln Highway, MS saw 18 states:
Colorado
Florida
Georgia
Illinois
Indiana
Iowa
Kansas
Kentucky
Missouri
Nebraska
New Mexico
North Carolina
Ohio
Oklahoma
South Carolina
Tennessee
Texas
Wyoming
If and when we will take to the country roads of the US again, time will tell.
MS in the mean time will be well taken care of to be ready for that next cross-country journey.
MS is signing off for now.
