About Throttle TravelAs a young adult, I loved to “wander.” By the age of 21, I visited Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, Texas, Illinois, Kentucky, Kansas, and Pennsylvania. From there, I settled down, finished college, and started a rewarding accounting career. With my husband, we balanced opposite work shifts, raised an amazing daughter, I earned my MBA, obtain a CPA license, and both of our careers quickly flourished.

Like most young families, we moved into a bigger home and juggled life demands. We purchased a home near a local Harley-Davidson dealership, and soon after moving in Harley-Davidson was celebrating their 100th anniversary. If you live in or near Milwaukee, you have been exposed to these “big” anniversary year parties. These milestone anniversary celebrations are fantastic and they hook you in. If you haven’t, it’s a must to add to your bucket list. The sport connects people from all over the world. Very similar to travel...we're all connected. If we had not experienced the "Harley" community we may have missed the many opportunities to explore new places and meet amazing people, we now call family!

With our riding seasons in the Midwest being short and winters brutal, we spent our cold months dreaming of where to go and spent months planning our trips. Our spark to “wander” resurfaced and we found ourselves traveling by motorcycle whenever and wherever we could. With friends, family, and even complete strangers. Once we became empty-nesters, the long-distance motorcycle trips started, racked up over 90,000 miles, and we've experienced life in the most amazing way!

Over the past decade, we've had the privilege of exploring all states in the US, with the exception of Alaska and the upper east coast. As our wanderlust grew, we began to venture beyond our borders, discovering the thrill of international travel. One of our favorite destinations is San Lucas Cabo, Mexico, which offers the perfect blend of sun, sand, and walkable activities. If you're lucky enough to visit between December and January, whale watching is an absolute must!
Our preferred mode of travel is cruising, and Grand Cayman Island holds a special place in our hearts as our favorite port. Recently, we've expanded our horizons to include river cruising and exploring the wonders of Europe.
Beyond travel, we're passionate about running, volunteering, and supporting rescued dogs. We're actively engaged in our community, proud members of the Chamber of Commerce, and dedicated to making a positive impact in the world around us.
