USA Midwest 2023, Day 1 of 16 September 1, 2023
I start from home in Douglasville, Georgia and roll northward via backroads through Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky and then take a ferry across the Ohio River into Illinois where I camped for the night at Tower Rock Campground near Cave-In-Rock, IL.

Day 10, the last day, of my California Loop 2018 Motorcycle Trip. In this video, I ride from Crystal Lake Camp Grounds southbound on San Gabriel Canyon Road (California Highway 39) to Azusa, CA. From Azusa, I jump onto Interstate 210 East. Not shown in the video, I rode I-210 E to CA-57 South to CA-71 South to I-15 South to Lake Elsinore, CA.
The video resumes in Lake Elsinore, CA on Central Ave (CA-74) where I ride home to my apartment complex. Sidenote, my family and I moved from Lake Elsinore, CA to Ramona, CA in October 2019 preparing for our move to Georgia in 2020 (where we still live today in 2025).

On this day, I departed Rancheria Campground on Huntington Lake, California and rode the very scenic Huntington Lake Road which had some terrific mountain views and somewhat sketchy road in some spots. Then I headed towards Fresno, CA on California Highway 168.
This is where this video ends as the remainder of the day was mostly freeway and interstates all the way to Azusa, CA where I camped at the Crystal Lake Camp Grounds.
On Day 8 – Part One, I travelled from Cottonwood Creek Campground, along the east side of Lake Tahoe, over Carson Pass, to Stockton, CA. The video picks up the trip in Lake Tahoe and ends in Clements, CA.
Ride over Carson Pass, California on Carson Pass Highway (CA-88).
My long planned and repeatedly delayed motorcycle trip, USA Midwest 2023, kicks off tomorrow morning.

In this video I ride the Nevada side of Lake Tahoe and head back into California, and ride through Historic Downtown Truckee, California. I wrap up the video riding back to camp at Cottonwood Creek Campground.
This video also wraps up Day 7, seemed like a week worth’s of video LOL.
Lake Tahoe area is truly spectacular and worth a visit. I hope to return some day and maybe chill more near the lake (probably won’t be a motorcycle trip next time).
I continue my scenic ride of Lake Tahoe in this video rolling down to the south end of the lake going though South Lake Tahoe, CA and into Nevada.
Some truly epic views of the lake and surrounding scenery from California Highway 89.
In this video, I take a scenic ride around a portion of Lake Tahoe from Kings Beach, CA to Emerald Bay State Park Lookout on the western side of the lake.
Lake Tahoe is such beautiful lake with crystal clear water. While the video and pictures are very nice, it still does not compare to how it looks in person.
In this video I go on a scenic ride within the Tahoe National Forest on California Highway 89 from Cottonwood Creek Campground to Truckee, California.
