The Road

View Larger Map This summer I’m going on a solo motorcycle road trip from one side of America to the other and back again. I’m starting in our nation's capitol and heading due west to San Francisco. From there I turn right to Seattle then hang another right bound for DC. My guidelines are: sleep under the stars as much as possible. stay off the major interstates as much as possible. take the picture whenever it presents itself. capture and post as much of this adventure as possible via pictures, twitter, gps position.

My ancestors left Africa 50k years ago. They settled in the Middle East 45k years ago. They moved into southern central Asia 40k years ago.  Then they moved into cental Asia 35k years ago. About 30k years ago, as CroMagnon's they colonized Europe. Most people in modern Spain and Ireland carry the same haplogroup as me.

The genetic markers that define your ancestral history reach back roughly 60,000 years to the first common marker of all non-African men,  M168,  and follow your lineage to present day ending with  M343,  the defining marker of Haplogroup  R1b. If you look at the map highlighting your ancestors' route, you will see that members of haplogroup  R1b  carry the following Y-chromosome markers: M168  > P143 >  M89 >  L15 >  M9  >  M45  >  M207  >  M173  >  M343 (Les...
