Next summer I'm going to ride from California to North Carolina on the "open carry, no helmet" route in conjunction with military orders.
My route takes me from San Diego to Salton Sea and then up to Blythe where I'll enter America on I-10 and press on. What I'm trying to do is get a feel for is the carry environment and decide between these two choices:
1. Unloaded OC is legal. Carry on. This risks timeline, military orders, imprisonment, etc. Could be more hassle than it's worth if I'm passing through.
2. Motorycle + open carry + back roads (not "most direct route") = trouble...play nice, let the locals handle it, take my fight to Pensacola.
If I didn't OC, I'd have my 1911 unloaded, action zip tied, case locked, mags in a seperate pouch with holster. I'd then buy ammo in Quartzsite, AZ and continue to Prescott.
