Mission Overland 
Archives
I recently took another step towards completing the Oklahoma Adventure Trail the way it was intended… on a motorcycle.
A few days ago I set off on my first motorcycle trip and in the interest of getting a beginners take on the matter, here is how it went…
In early 2017, I started looking at the Trans-America Trail (TAT) which was a trail spanning the continental United States and developed for adventure motorcycles. At that time in my life, motorcycles were not an option, so I started looking at adventuring in my 1987 Jeep Wrangler. The TAT takes a while and I was looking for something easier to get into adventuring.
Over the Thanksgiving break, I had an opportunity to see a lot of the family for the holidays, something that has not been a possibility since joining the military. Typical me, I can’t just go visit family, I had to turn it into an overlanding trip! I threw a plan together and the kiddo and I hit the road.
Day 8 took me through western New Mexico, to the border with Mexico, and then through Texas and Oklahoma to get home to the family. Read the full recap of the last day HERE. Here are the pictures I took throughout the day:
