Current Goal

After 11 months on the road (originating in Illinois), “Erik’s Travel Bug” and “Julie’s Travel Bug” were re-united at a cache site in the deserts of Arizona. Together, they had traveled over 9,000 miles on different trails, different directions, only to cross paths far from home--how cool! Now, it is time for them to go their separate ways, to see new sights, meet new friends and put on some more miles. "Erik's" short-term goal is to travel more miles than "Julie's". One day they will be re-united again in another location. View "Julie's Travel Bug" at: (visit link)

About This Item

Erik's Travel Bug

The Travel Bug is a older-model VW Beetle, just like I used to have. I had a light blue 1967 model with a sunroof, and it was a great car. It had well over 100,000 miles on it when I bought it. The long term goal of this "Erik's Travel Bug" is to exceed 100,000 miles. Take this bug on vacation with you and drop it off, or just move it quickly from local site to site. Happy trails!

hi you may want to hide the tracking # in the photo to keep people from making false logs. This is a common mistake. Unfortunately some people cheat and take advantage of this.
If, however, you are choosing to share this one, Thanks!

The Love Bug has been here a while. It's time for him to do some travelling. Put some miles on the odometer.

I might hold on to this for a couple of weeks to let it get some travel time into the Phoenix or Denver area (whichever area I can get to first).

I love VWs. A bright red 1976 Volkswagen convertible has been part of our family for 18 years.

Right now my bug and Erik's bug are out in the garage spending some quality time together. When they get caught up on things I will find Erik's bug a new home.
