A few weeks ago I rode my Ninja 250 from San Jose, CA to Spokane, WA and back, averaging just over 500 miles a day. The gallery of photos is here. The trip was a ton of fun, although by the second day each way I was a little sore. I should have stopped more often, because there was a lot more scenery than the pictures suggest. It rained a couple of times so I didn’t get any shots from some parts of the trip. On the bright side the rain cleaned all the bug guts off my gear.
Highlights:
Welcome to Oregon
Eastern Oregon
Danger to manifold!
Bugs really like my visor.
Most of the shots are from the return trip, since I had an onboard camera mounted. The onboard camera is pretty cool, but I need to work some kinks out. The mount and the camera body itself aren’t very stiff, so it shakes while recording video. Here’s a clip to illustrate:
After I got the camera recording in HD and in daylight the quality was better but the shakiness was worse:

Mayhaps you shouldn’t have such a clear image of the speedometer

Don’t let you Mom see the incriminating speedometer.

I was clearly in first gear going 20mph. That explains the motion blur on that truck blowing by me.
