“FATMAN” 2 May – 7 June

FATMAN 2023

FATMAN, 40 days / 6400 miles, will focus primarily upon The Ride and the hope of being as “true” to Route 66, Pacific Coast Highway and U.S Route 12 as much as possible. The number of P.O.I’s on this push are endless, almost impossible to list. I will be revising, updating, detailing and shining up this trip as time progresses. Be sure to check in here for the latest alterations!

Route 66 and Pacific Coast Highway are two top contenders on every bikers bucket-list, but few are familiar with their sassy little sister U.S Route 12. Built in 1926, U.S Route 12 spans a somewhat more Northerly course from the Pacific Ocean via Aberdeen, Washington to Detroit, Michigan. Over 2500 lonely miles filled with road-trip culture, kitsch, natural beauty and True Americana.

The route and number of days may fluctuate some but the trip will take place between the date-frame 2 May – 10 June 2023.
