    6:52 I see your patch that says "I rode my bike to trailer week" I'm assuming it's about the Sturgis Rally. I have been calling it trailer week since the mid 90's lol.

      I think I got that one at Sturgis in '05, but it really applies to all the big rallies.

    I live just north of you in Winston-Salem. I run the BOTD at least once a month during the riding season. Always stop in Tazewell at the visitor center for some great BBQ before riding back home. Hope I see you up there sometime!

      I’ll definitely be at the annual OTR x BOTD event, I think it’s in June this year

    • @GregALang

      Yes, June 7th - 9th this year. I'll probably be up there on one of those three days.@@CrunchMoto

    Nice country, Interesting to me I don’t know it at all. Maybe one day I will ride across to the Atlantic.

    That’s really nice that your Sun Pass is accepted in so many states. My Toll Tag (for North Texas) is only good in Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas. That was somewhat frustrating on a recent road trip to New England.
    Great video; I look forward to the next installment.

      Definitely a pleasant surprise. Cash tolls on a motorcycle are super inconvenient. Thanks for watching!

    Just found your channel. Enjoying it so far. Got a trip to Alaska coming up in August 2024. Hopefully I’ll be able to learn a little from your videos. 3 of us going. A Harley Roadglide Limited, a Harley Roadglide special, and a GL1800. Thanks for shows!!

    Loving the series! 555 looks like a fun route.

    • @CrunchMoto
      @CrunchMoto  Год назад

      It was! There was some loose gravel at the southern end and tar snakes at the northern, but all-in-all, a very fun road.

    Hey Crunch, Great content! Really enjoyed the CA to FL series. The Sunpass PRO (New Generation Transponder) is compatible with northern states East of Mississippi toll system. You have the original Sunpass for within Florida, GA, NC. Good luck on this awesome adventure!

      Thanks for watching! Good to know about the SunPass… Sounds like I should expect a bill from WV Toll Authority?

    I noticed the USBP patch on your bag, was wondering if you are a former or current agent? I’m retired out San Diego Sector. Like your videos!

    • @CrunchMoto
      @CrunchMoto  4 месяца назад

      I’m not, but I have a friend who is currently an agent. He started in Sand Diego sector but has since transferred to the northern border.
