Default Road Trip

Hey all!
A couple buddies and I are planning a road trip for next summer. We want to spend a couple weeks on the road and travel to some pretty cool places. We are trying to find places that people would recommend going to, so does anyone have any ideas that they want to throw out? We are looking for anything and anywhere within the country! Post up your suggestions, and maybe some photos too if you have them! I really appreciate the help!

Well we are starting in Central PA and heading up the coast to maine, making a few stop along the way, then eventually heading across the country to Colorado, Nevada, California, and then coming back across some of the more southern states (Texas, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida), then riding the coast back up!

Pikes Peak in Colorado Springs, CO


I just went there last month while on a roadtrip.
The road up was lower speeds (30mph or so) but still fun to drive. They make donuts up there that are different (due to the altitude they say). Quite tasty.

When you're in Ojai, California, be sure to stop by Ojai Valley Taxidermy.

I think most states in this country have roads and sites worth visiting. Except Kansas.
