Many of us would love nothing more than to pack up a bunch of essential items and go on scenic, refreshing road trips on our bikes. Of course, such an undertaking takes careful planning to accomplish—particularly if you’re trying to stay within a budget.

As of September, 2022, she’s done two round-trip motorcycle trips across the U.S., both on her trusty 2016 Honda CB500X.
