An Odyssey into the Abyss of Time and Life. Threw some gear in the car, took off again on another RT RoadTrip for 6 months, Trekked back roads to see what's out on the edge. Left B'ham/ Leeds, AL early Spring, returned late Sept. Plan was West to Arizona, then North through the Rockies to Glacier. Ride along on this ITW =Into The West RT to see the best back roads and scenic byways,12,000 miles in all. Just because you wander doesn't mean you're lost. Copyright MCMLXIII ALL Rights Reserved
