Trans America Trail

The Trans America Trail (TAT) was the ultimate adventure that fueled the passion behind Shred Stone! Jager and Kari—the dynamic duo at Shred Stone—completed this epic journey in July 2024, crossing from coast to coast across the United States.

Join us as we recount every thrilling moment of our adventure. We’ll dive into our meticulously crafted motorcycle builds, sharing insights into the gear and modifications that helped us conquer the diverse terrains of the TAT. Our packing list will be unveiled, showcasing the essentials and creature comforts that made our journey smoother.

As we traversed this challenging route, we relied on specific products and equipment that became indispensable. Expect honest, real-world reviews of the gear that kept us comfortable, safe, and moving forward.

But that’s not all! We’ll take you through the grand finale—an in-depth account of our entire Trans America Trail adventure, sharing all the highs, lows, and unforgettable moments we encountered along the way. From technical tips to breathtaking vistas, we’re sharing it all right here, exclusively on Shred Stone. Buckle up and relive the ride of a lifetime with us!
