G'day Fred,
Looking at the route you have posted, it truly looks like an amazing adventure for sure. The overall picture I have in my head is the movie, 'Wild Hogs' I believe it was called. I hope that there are no misadventures of course, but, I am sure it will be one of those 'Lifetime Memories' for everyone involved. I haven't made any firm plans as yet, but I definitely wish to be involved. I would love to do the whole trip, but the intention is to be with Kathy for the 3 months leave I have. So it is looking like I will join you in Seattle and make the return leg with you to either Milwaukee or Chicago as Kathy lives in Belvidere, Illinois. Speaking with Kathy, she is interested in coming to Seattle as she has never been there. So we may do 3 or 4 days there before you guys arrive, spend some time with you and then Kathy fly home. Kathy has met Ralph, so I think she kind of knows what you guys maybe like..me being an Aussie DBF'er well, I manage to surprise her every now and then, sometimes I even shock her! lol
It's hard to say where I am looking forward to seeing as there is so much to see in the USA. I do know however that it's not so much 'what' I want to see, but 'who' I want to see.....YOU GUYS! Also, to meet the one and only Ron Martini in Sherridan, Wyoming, will be something special as he is the reason I know you guys in the first place! I will let you know as soon as I make definite plans, but I do know one thing, I will be there for at least half of what I believe will be an incredible journey! Roll on 2010! Blue *_*

Good seeing you post here Blue; I was getting lonely. We'll be happy to have you for as much of the ride as you can make. This truly is the fulfillment of a lifelong dream for me and to be able to make it with the group we've assembled makes it just so much better. If everything goes according to schedule we should be in the Seattle area by the weekend of July 17, 2010 and spend a few days there before riding down to spend the day with Sue McLaughlin and then the return ride back east to Michigan. The route will put us fairly close to Belevedere, IL and we may even be able to adjust it to take you right there.
ReplyDeleteThere will be much more planning in the spring to sort all that out. In the meantime, if there are parts of the American "Wild West" you want to see just let me know.
I've alerted Ron Martini that we're coming and we just have to give him some advance notice so he can have the Wyoming Troopers "stand down"
Cheers,
