Thank you, thank you, thank you! What an awesome and unselfish video diary.. You have provided me the necessary UUUUMPH! to do what I've been wanting to do for many a moon, and that is ride the great Route 66 with some pals to capture a great part of American history!

I found the best time to do it is mid to late September. I did it at the end of September into October and had the best weather with no rain at all and mostly sunny with temps that ranged from mid 70's to upper 80's. However, when you do go, be sure to be prepared for anything.

Great Montage! I just back from riding myself and would love to know how you made the video? ie what programme?

Thanks

I use Adobe Premiere Pro and inserted the digital pictures in the timeline.

Nice movie 3xposuremedia! I live in Brasil and i´m very interested in to make the total course of route 66. Now, this is my trip of the dreams! How much time you delayed to make the total course of Route 66? Do you have the script of the trip that you planned to send to me? How much you espent in dollar more or less? Very thaks.

I was under a little time constraint so I took a week to do the ride... it should be done slower. Motels each night cost from a low of $23 to a high of $50. I used an excellent route book I would recommend to anybody, even if you don't take the trip... "Route 66: EZ66 Guide for Travelers" by Jerry McClanahan. You can order it on Amazon.

I think so, too. If you want to know the real America, you can't visit only New York or Miami, but you must know also places like Oklahoma and Arizona.

Nice job! It looks sad at times with all the abandon buildings, but it does have historic value to it. I would be a dream of a journey to visit Route 66.
