        Bike still looks great, Steve.
        Drew was here recently and said his Kat was close to running down the road.

            Left at 6pm last Thursday and rode 260 miles before finding somewhere in NJ to camp:

                We just pulled off of I-84 since there was a little tent indicating a campground on my US atlas (love this thing). It was at High Point State Park and I wish we could have had more time to ride around the area and explore. What we did see of the surrounding roads was really great.

                I actually already have the fork seals since I had ordered non-OEM a year ago and one of them started leaking a little towards the end of my cross country trip. Just need some new fork oil now.

                  Your pictures and story are interesting.
                  Your camping picture really shows your style of camping.

                  I liked your Pittsburg picture. I suspect you took it to show how/where you had to find a parking place. but it also shows something of how you traveled.
                  The stuff strapped to the back of the seat: the duffel bag, the tarp, the tent gear... and then, on top, the big atlas book! Ha! Looks like you are prepared to go to any state!
                  Oh, wait, cant really see, maybe that is a World Atlas.

                        Yes, there are some nice areas in North Jersey. Central where I am is ok.... sort of. South Jersey is fairly flat and boring. Once again another cool trip report. Nice.
