    My dream some day is to take a motorcycle trip through the US and stop at every Trek related place I can find. Places like this little hotel … I used to love staying at places like this because they were so unusual and often close to plenty of old restaurants and malls reminiscent of the 80s and 90s. All the new booking stuff you find are all mostly new, in new suburban areas with the same box stores, the same box restaurants, the same box theatres and the same box malls.

    One stop I would love to see on a long bike trip is Vasquez Rocks … and stand where Kirk and his crew stood in the original series … and maybe dodge a boulder thrown by an agitated Gorn.

      There is (or was - I hope it’s still around) a Trek themed soul food restaurant-slash-microbrewery in Albuquerque that is a must-see if you’re doing a cross country ride.
