Hey Loco,

How are your trip plans coming along? If you pass through the Washington, DC area, plan on getting some rest and a tune-up while you are here. Man, I wish I could join you.

Good luck...it will be awesome.

It will be fun to follow you through the ride, we will need a day by day report of progress. When you get near LA I will get out and meet you for that portion of the ride. I am fighting Cancer now and I might add winning, this has kept me from a few things lately. I also see things in life differently for sure. There is a saying "God gave us memories that we might have Roses in Winter" Your son will never forget the quality time spent. Have fun, Dave

PS: Think of all the grand people you will meet, and friendships started.

LocoWelder,

I second the "blog" idea.
Take along a laptop or a blackberry or something you can post from and have the administrators of this site set up a section for you to post your daily adventures.
Would be a great piece of reference for anyone planning a similar trip in the future.

BTW, in case no one's aware, one of the first, if not THE first, transcontinental trips across the country by internal combustion engine was in 1903 on a motor cylce (would be very similar to what we're riding).
A guy named Riff Addams celebrated the centennial of the event by making a similar journey in 2003.
I've been reading about it. Fascinating.
Anyone interested, here's the link to his website - http://www.angelfire.com/wa3/rif_addams/home.html
Overview of the 1903 ride and rider.
Riff Addams' centennial ride.

Can also be linked from The Adventures section of The Whizzer website.

Go for it, dude!
I, for one, look forward to reading about it.
