Trip Out West - September 4 - 13, 2009

[Dweezel]

I'll be taking the 'bus fo sho!

[KhaoticRebel]

Damnit, why can't this be planned during the three months I have off in the summer!?

[Dweezel]

Like your skinny ass would make it that far

[KhaoticRebel]

Well we'll never know because it's scheduled when school is back in session...jerks. Besides, I'd just ride bitch with you and make you do all the damn work. That way I can text, surf the internet, fill out some mad-libs and maybe play some travel bingo.

[Disclaimer]

Hell, tow a single rail bike trailer with the RR on it, behind the busa WHILE you ride bitch.

The 'busa could do it, and with plenty of power to spare. Start fab-ing it up Dweez...

It's only a week, if you start kissing ass now I'm sure they'd let you have it off. Your not riding with me, I'm not lugging your xbox around for a week, and I'd have to get one of those child restraints and snap us together so you don't blow off

But seriously, speaking of doing other stuff while riding on the back of a bike... Tonya sleeps while I drive... But she's only done that a few times LOL she's about the same size as you, there must be a vacuum behind my big ass that keeps her stuck there

Kissing ass does not get you more personal days when you're a teacher. You only get three Personally, I like JRMMiii's idea. Better yet, rig a trailer up with the RR on it and I'll sit on that while you tow me around! PERFECT!

[Disclaimer]

...only if you make motorcycle noises when you're on it on the trailer.

[KhaoticRebel]

I can totally make motorcycle noises while on the trailer. I have been working on my vroom vroom sounds.

I logged 4 nights in hotels this past week for work, so I got a lot of important paperwork done for work. Oddly enough it all looks a lot like the routes for the Trip West.

I have the complete route mapped out and saved as day by day routes. If you have Microsoft's Streets and Trips '07 or newer - PM your email address to me and I'll send you the routes. If you don't have Streets and Trips, go buy a copy. It's only like $25 or so. Great tool for trip planning, etc. Could always buy one copy and pass it around to everyone.

I'll also do daily trip sheets that I'll email to everyone. Those will have the hotel name, reservation numbers and routes so you can put a daily sheet in the top of your tank bag. This way, if you get seperated from the group, you'll know where we're staying that night and will have a suggested route to get there.

I may do a roll chart as well for the entire trip. If anyone has a roll chart holder and will send me the paper, I'll do a roll chart for it as well.

Pretty cool program to use. Be nice if all that are going had a copy so we can coordinate stuff better.

Don't do a backpack. You're regret that one an hour into the trip. If you use a backpack, strap it to the rear seat. I use saddlebags:

[Earache]

I'm going to get the hotel rooms reserved sometime within the next week. If you'd like to get yours done at the same time, let me know and we'll arrange it.

I cannot make the trip. Thanks for the offer though.

Wifey lost her job over a year ago and hasn't found anything since.

It sucks she was with Nationwide Federal Credit Union/Bank for 16 years and they eliminated her position.

Nationwide is on your back side...

[Earache]

Bummer. If I had Nationwide, I'd drop them just for you.

We'll do it again, hopefully you can go then.

[Casper]

Updated the itinerary.

[FocusDave01]

hmm i have family in colorado sounds kinda fun!

[fusion]

I really wanted to do this but our company just got bought out and my vacation got set back to zero. I won't have enough extra by then to make the trip.

[krzwhtman]

Nevada in the summer is no fun at all. Utah is bad enough!

i lived out there in Yuma Az. nothing like jumping on the bike and getting blisters after its been in heat awhile , and 120 to 136 degrees in gear . thats just better than sex.

[Earache]

I'm heading out July 3 for a week of recon. Have a couple of new places I'd like to check out - if they're any good, we can hit them in Sept.

Be nice to get a firm headcount of who's going - approaching the time to make hotel arrangements, etc.

[Casper]

I'm in 100%.

[e-flores]

i want in but i dont think thats going to be a possibility at all.... school sucks!!!

[warpspeed]

let me go buy leadwing and I'm down!!!!
