How many States have you ridden you're Bike in? 9 Months, 4 Weeks ago  
This is fun. Over the years as I have traveled around the country I keep track of what States I have ridden in. Online I found a site where you check off the states you have ridden in (or whatever) and it creates a color map you can save to you're computer.Click on the _link_ below to go to the site. Then to really test you're computer skills, post it on this thread!

Here's my map, I gotta get North Dakota this Summer. I got it surrounded!

Well you can tell I lived in North Carolina for a while, but how did I miss Mississippi and Alabama. I had to go to Maude Gras so that's how I got Louisiana.

Re:How many States have you ridden you're Bike in? 9 Months, 3 Weeks ago  
I posted the same message on the MOA forum on Friday Feb 8th. It's already up to 5 pages! They get a little more traffic than our forum does!
My target for this summer is to bag North Dakota and Nevada and Cali. Then I'm done with the west. I'd have more states but this thing called a "job" takes way too much of my time!

Here is my map. Sadly, none of my trips this year involve "bagging" new states. I have plans for a few trips I would like to do someday to get the rest of the states.

I'm kind of embarrased to show my map. After this summer I should be able to add Montana and Utah. Also a strong chance of adding Idaho sometime after Labor Day.

How'd you ride your bike in Washington without going through the surrounding states? Inquiring minds want to know.

Looks like I have a lot more riding to do. Oh yeah, I have also ridden in the states of pleasure, denial and confusion.

19- mostly throught the south and up to Alaska. This summer I plan on taking out the rest of the eastern ones.

Goal is all 50 states within the next 2 years- Hawaii may be the most difficult!

Here is my map, need to add a few. Yes, you can get a bike from Colorado to California (Tahoe)without riding it!

So far, with many months not riding due to medical recoveries from my different injuries.
