Welcome To Ripclaw's Rippin Web Page This is my attempt at a half-ass webpage ! So don't laugh unless you've gone down this road too!
Thank you for visiting my home page, I want to share with you my journey from summer '97. Where I rode my GSX-R1100cc sportbike from Las Vegas, Nevada to Philadelphia, PA and back to Las Vegas. It took 13 hours of riding to get to Clovis, NM where I stoppped to visit a friend. I never knew NM was so flat, it seemed to make the trip longer then it really was. It took 30 hours of riding from Clovis, NM to Philadelphia, PA. The weather was prefect all the way, I seemed to miss every rain storm. Around Oklahoma I ran out of gas, even thou I had a gas can with me, it was empty. I was trying to push my gas mileage too far! Ended up having to push my bike for about 2 miles (she would run for alittle bit and then I would have to push her for alittle bit) off and on. After alot of hours riding on a "crotch rocket" the vibrations from the road can defintely put you to sleep. As I started falling asleep off and on, I kept one thought going in my head. That thought was to make it home to see my DAD, who I hadn't seen in about 1 1/2 years. The Lord was definitely watching over me ! It's weird looking back on that part of the trip because it feels like I was on the outside looking in. To Be Contiuned.........
