Ride Report

North Dakota could be characterised as straight, windy & flat. The feature which attracted me to doing a bit more of this state than just nicking the corner, which was the temptation, was that a stretch of road, Highway 46, which goes from Streeter to Hickson, is the longest stretch of straight road in the US, a total of 200kms.

I'll never complain about Western Australia again.

I'll let the photos below tell the story as you travel Hwy 46 with me.
