I did it last June, it was great! (Google "Mother road rally") You will get a list of groups that offer "guides" The term "guide" is somewhat misleading, because you wind up seeing him only a couple of times a day (they tell you this up front) The road itself, is for the most part, not to inspiring, ( two places that stood out were Winslow, and Kingman in Arizona) but the people were great, and from what I was told, it's the same year after year. Even though the people change, the result is the same. Out of 50+ bikes, about half had done the trip before, some a many as 6 times. One pair was on there third trip, and they came over from England. Be prepared to to meet some cool people, and make some friends.

Ever notice that the person
telling you to calm down
is the same one that got you worked up
in the first place.
