Hi all
I am planning, with a friend, to get over to the US and do a huge circle ride for charities (so far undecided). The route is detailed below. I am going to need support from people in the US, sponsorship and such. I have an engine, a gebe 32cc which I can have UPS'd across to the states and we are planning to build up bitsa bikes from donated parts (one of the two being a trike). If anyone is interested in riding with us or can help out - let me know
A possible route would be..
New york down to Tampa, Florida.
Then from there across the bottom to San Diego (via Texas )
From SD up to Seattle and across from there to Boston..
From Boston, final leg dahn sahrth again to NY (start location) - a little tiny squirt of a distance - 218 miles by which time we'll probably never want to see a MB let alone ride one ever again)
A total mileage of 8061 give or take which at 180 MPG gives us a total fuel useage for my GEBE/Schwinn of around 45-46 Gallons of fuel and a total required riding time in hours (assuming 22mph average) of 366.41 hours or 46 days assuming a solid 8 hour riding day...
I must be bloody mad!!!
