We already mapped the ultimate American road trip. Now it's your turn.

Earlier this week, we boldly declared that we had mapped “The (New) Great American Road Trip,” enumerating a whopping 150 stops that are worthy of a short detour if you find yourself with some time to kill this summer.

Readers, friends and even our own staff were very quick to express quibbles with that list, letting us know about all the great spots — often in their home states — that we had omitted.

Now it’s your turn.

We want to know about your favorite road-trip destination in America, along with tales about all the good, bad or just plain weird things that happened to you there. You’ve got two options:

  • Shoot us an email at editorial@insidehook.com with the subject line “Road Trip”; next week, we’ll publish all our favorite tales in a follow-up story. If you’d like your name kept anonymous, just let us know.
  • Or post on Instagram or Twitter with the hashtag #insidehookroadtrip

Then keep your eyes on this space — or our travel newsletter, The Journey (sign up here) — next weekend to see if your story made the cut.

Regale us, friends!
