So my girls and I are taking a family road trip...

leaving the 21st of May and gonna be home around the 6th of June give or take a day at the end depending on weather.

Any got suggestions or Ideas of cools stops along the route?

Badlands and Mt Rushmore are gonna be quick 1 day each deals cuz they are an easy 4 day weekend trip for us.

Looking at 3~5 days in Yellowstone 2~3 days in Grand Tetons 4 days of family in Rexburg Id. Then a trip home along the southern path... Stop and see Carhenge... and ???

Not taking the cruiser (sorry) Jetta wagon TDI with a roof top box and a bike rack in the hitch.

IDEAS??

Well 2986 miles later and I am home!!! The bike rake performed very well, there are a few things I might change but for the most part I liked it. Very solid. Fitting the kids bikes was a bit of a pain... I had to remove the arm end caps each time, but that did make it harder for them to be stolen too. I'll post up pics and stuff in a few days!
