Default 48 State Tour with my J-200 on a Motorcycle!

Hey AGF crew,
I realize I have not been here for a while, but I'm finally doing this tour I have been talking about for 2 years! No production team - just me, the bike, a guitar, and some video gear. All 48 states non-stop beginning in May of 2017. Follow along!

I will be stopping in Bozeman and I was hoping to tour the factory where my SJ-200 was made, but my understanding is that there are no more public tours. Anyone have an in?

Here is the Pilot Episode:

Here is the website for more information:

If you have a place to crash or can provide any help please check out this page:

Thanks and Ride On!

I finally have a detailed Schedule page. I have a lot of gaps, so if you can fill one, I'd be most appreciative!

I assume that a "YES" on the lodging list means that you're covered in that city...

Will you be gigging along the way, & if so, are you listing them?

Yes you are correct! I think I will add a Gig column as well. The gigs will be mixed. Some private Parties and some at small venues. Thanks for the idea!
