Member Contributer AussieinUSA Posted October 27, 2007 Member Contributer Share Posted October 27, 2007 Thanks Seb, great shots and story. A fun day out on the bike with the misses is hard to beat, unless the old lady rides her own which may or may not be any better. I'm doing a "short ride" from Nth Carolina to Vegas in early Nov, hope the weather stays healthy and I get to see some of what you did with the changing leaves.

I wouldn't mind if she had her own bike, but it would take her a while to 'get up to speed', so sporty rides are still more fun with her on the back... For your trip, I don't need to suggest that you stay as far south as possible, do I? Even along I-40 your going to run into some cold air through the midwest, I suggest heading for Texas(40-30-20-10, unless you have time for non-interstate riding). Good luck with it!!

Thanks Seb, I was trying to do it across 40 but may run into weather in New Mexico and Flagstaff Arizona. Gotta do it bansie style unfortunately, but not without going through the dragon, thats a "must do" deal right there. I've never been east of Flagstaff so this is gunna be exciting..........outside the fact that the majority of riding will be on boring a$$ slab, wish I had more time. BTW, my wife loves riding her own which is great. I do leave her when we eventually find twisties but I slow so she can catch up when it flattens out and shes cool with that. She stays with me on regular roads though, no probs keeping up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 28, 2007 Share Posted October 28, 2007 From the other side of the globe, I really enjoyed reading your ride report. And enjoyed your photo's also. Magnificent colours up your way for sure. Any chance you might upload the pic below in the larger format? It'd look great as my desktop. Well done!

Take a look through my gallery, I rode 40 west from Nashville to Albuquerque, then 25 south to 10 last year. Careful leaving the wife behind, she might mind more than you think... :wheel: Mojo, pm me your email address, and I'll send you "the big'un". :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately she cant do this right now or believe me she would, hopefully we'll get another chance to do it together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SEBSPEED Posted January 27, 2008 Author Share Posted January 27, 2008 NO SNOW!!!! Tomorrow is supposed to get into the low 80's, we're on course for a "top ten warmest October" up here, I'm hoping it carries through to December like last year... :rolleyes: Boy, was I wrong about December... :joystick: <_< Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer Mac Posted January 27, 2008 Member Contributer Share Posted January 27, 2008 Enjoyed your pictures, Seb. You look like a normal guy. Who would have guessed? I do believe February is the longest month of the year, I don't care what the calendar says. I know it's the hardest to spell. What happened to global warming? Thanks again!
