Plasma,
It's pretty country out that way, ain't it?  I always like getting into that area riding.  Those steady winds aren't bad, but the gusts are a royal pain.  I went east out of El Paso years ago and rode half way across Texas on the sides of the tires.  Like you said, the beer was good at night!  I did that trip in July, so I didn't have to worry about being cold!

Gadget, sorry I missed answering your post. I am a Harley man through and through but am very impressed with the Goldwing for highway travel. The bike handled well, has loads of power. I believe that the Honda used almost exactly the same amount of fuel at each stop. Saddle bags and trunk provided easy access to gear. Only trouble is it sounds like a sewing machine instead of a motorcycle. My buddy owns the bike and has made several long trips with us and has never had a problem with the bike. I have never ridden a Goldwing and will stick with my Roadking.
