There is no other finish line more appropriate for a cannonball than The Portofino Hotel & Marina in California. If you know, you know. This cannonball saga will start at Kitty Hawk, NC on the OBX. It just doesn’t get more significant than that.

The 2025 route has been painstakingly curated for the perfect motorcycle adventure. Hundreds of hours have been spent selecting the best roads in sections that work for motorcycles. Checkpoints are placed at the end of epic roads or at interesting and historic landmarks. This route is not for the faint-hearted, but riders will appreciate the planning and pre-running. All the stress of planning a cross-country ride is taken care of, you will not end up on an off-road section that escalates to wildly difficult and you won’t find yourself at a dead-end canyon at midnight because something looked cool on Google Maps.

The 2025 route may look like random squiggles on a map, it may not even make sense on your screen today. But rest assured, every turn that seemingly looks like an inefficient turn to nowhere is actually heading for a ribbon of motorcycle paradise.

This is not a race nor a boring slow-paced group ride. It’s a coast-to-coast checkpoint rally with like-minded folks from all over the world. While a few of the riders will surely be taking scoring very seriously and you will only see them at the start line, there will be plenty of us who will ride at a reasonable pace and enjoy the safety of the well-planned route and the camaraderie of the group.
