Road Tripping Across the USA

Xelement saddlebags

Ever since the day I bought my Harley Davidson motorcycle, I’ve dreamed of taking a cross-country bike trip. All the books I’ve read and movies I’ve seen have convinced me that long-distance road trips are an integral part of the American Dream. I had never been to the American Southwest, but the photography capturing the region’s natural splendor seemed endlessly appealing.

Then, at the end of summer, I sat down and worked through the logistics of the trip - the fuel costs, the time I would need to get off from work and so on. I informed a friend in California that his house would be the final destination for the trip, and I went online to find a motorcycle luggage set. By packing light, I managed to fit most of my gear and provisions in the Xelement saddlebags.
