ive been thinkin the same thing but still havent thought of a plan? :?

[C_Note]

Road trip? Set up a touring/poker-run style course. Get on Mapquest and pick out locations like the Steak-N-Shake in Cambridge, then maybe head over to Pittsburg, etc. You could make it a 1 day thing, or find a good place to stop for the night and get hotels (again, using Mapquest or even an old map (which I prefer)), making it a 2-day thing.

It could be the kind of trip where you're just enjoying the scenery and using the checkpoints as congregation, or you could spend less time in the seat and find locations that have something to offer (landmark, or a park that you could spend an hour walking around, like Hocking Hills).

Good suggestion.

That would be a good thing to do with a g/f....but last time I checked I didn't have one.... :(

[ramrod]

we could go ride bikes :-)

Later this week I'll outline a small sample course, and see what you guys think. I'll try to include all the details, like fuel stops, total miliage, approximate fuel costs, etc.

i swear i was going to post that the other day when adam posted this topic.. but got busy and never got around to it..

poker run would be a cool.. is anyone familar with how an actual poker run is handled?.. i've got biker friends who run them all the time, but i've never stopped to ask exactly how its handled.. they are usually doing them for charity..

that would be cool to... All of us take a trip to Some big car show like 10-15 hours away that would be cool.. 8)

I didn't necessarilly mean to suggest that it would be like a poker run, just using that as an example, because there would be stops and checkpoints every so often, to make sure we're all together.

Anyone want to set something up....set a date on a weekend and lets make it happen.

Plan a route and lets do it!!!!


Sooner the better..... 8)
