Route 66 is one of America's best places to visit, anytime of year, any day of the week. Here at Route 66 Tours, we make sure that you're able to see all the sights while traveling with ease. One of the best ways to see everything Route 66 has to offer from Chicago to Santa Monica is to ride the trip on a Harley-Davidson motorcycle tour. Here's why.
No separation between you and the land
You'll be engrossed in Route 66 and all of its elements each day. There's nothing quite like driving this historic highway feeling the breeze and breathing fresh air. You'll be in closer contact with vegetation and wildlife and won't have a windshield between you and the beautiful sunsets that the western United States is known for.
When you get to sites like the Grand Canyon, the Mississippi River, or Santa Monica Pier, trust us when we say that you'll want nothing in your way. This is one of the reasons that riding the route on a bike is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Motorcycle community
Harley-Davidson riders love to visit the sites and towns along Route 66. Whether taking a ride through Santa Fe to view the unique art and culture, or driving through the landforms of the Mojave Desert, you'll be able to find motorcyclists almost everywhere, ready for a good time. You'll be able to share stories with other bike lovers, exchange advice and meet interesting folks from all over the world. Meeting up with others and making memories that will last for years to come can be a great way to add more wonderful experiences to your Route 66 trip.
Easier sightseeing
It's just a fact that a bike is easier to manage than a car. If you see an interesting town or attraction that you want to visit, it's much easier to pull off the road in your motorcycle for a few minutes. You won't be in the way of cars on the highway, so it's safer for everyone. Even in a pack of motorcycle lovers, you'll have much more flexibility about starting and stopping throughout your drive. This is why getting on a bike is a great way to experience America's greatest road trip.
