Default Off on 4000-mile bike trip!

I am heading out tomorrow night on another trip on my Intruder vs800, this time a long one! I will be shooting across town, then heading out Thursday morning for a rally in Paducah, KY, for four days of fun, riding, and beer drinking. Then I am off to Illinois for a day, then over to Pittsburg, PA, for a day, and then off to New Hampshire for a couple days. Then its back down the East Coast to Virginia, then down I-85 to Atlanta. I will hit 21 states and cover a little over 4000 miles in the next 14 days!!
Wahoo! Can't wait to see my friends at the rally, then see the fall color up in New England, new York, PA, etc.
When I get back my plate is due, and I will have turned over 14,000 miles over the last 12 months.

Wish me luck and pray for 'no rain!'

I'm so jealous I could vomit with rage. Have a heck of a time. Don't worry about us squids. We'll be fine.

man i want to take a trip like that, but working for STAPLES CORP,./rant/ you get *crapped* on and work your life away just to own a nice toy. (car bike etc.) /Rant/ i work in the networking/IS dept @ staples in framingham MA. and one of those people that have to be on call like 12 hour shifts. its gay, but for 21.50 an hour, ill sit on my ass and stare @ a computer screen.

But anyhoo ive only gone 100 mikes topps on one ride, it was to the beach in NH. just a ride up the highway. GOOD LUCK AND BE SAFE.
