Couldn't have said it better myself. Don't let us have to resort to "Team Brown" (UPS)!

GZ 2.0 has been languishing in Meridian, Idaho for a week now ( http://forums.sohc4.net/index.php?topic=105559.msg1208029#msg1208029 ) and we have had no luck finding anyone willing to meet up with ofreen to pick up the baton. If we can't get something going by the end of the week (6/15/12) we are going to have to consider shipping the baton. Where is everyone? If we ship the baton to Seattle, is there a way to connect with Team Northern in Montana or North Dakota? Or are we going to have to ship the baton from there as well? We are in dire need of some feedback!

Lefty needs your help!

Godzilla is going to tease Lefty to no end on this one!

scottly · « **Reply #6 on:** June 10, 2012, 09:18:13 PM »

Can anyone in the Portland area possibly meet ofreen somewhere half-way? Or lend a bike to Mickey6??

I'm leaving for a Goldwing trip this weekend or I'd go to Idaho & pick up lefty. I could do it when I get back but that'll be 4 weeks or so from now. I could take it through Oregon and up to Seattle if it's not too late. Timing's not good this time otherwise I'd be there now.

Possible mailing addresses could be Wes in Nebraska who is thinking of riding to Rockerbox in Wisconsin, or to Dennis near Milwaukee. From there, we should be able to pick up Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois & maybe even roll a wheel or two in and out of the Dakotas. I haven't seen any riders speaking up from middle Canada.

Would hate to see Lefty moving with Team Brown, but if he has to, I'm sure we can find an addressee.

Does anyone in the PNW even ride?

Come on people, step up to the plate!

scottly · « **Reply #10 on:** June 13, 2012, 08:15:09 PM »

Bump!!

scondon · « **Reply #11 on:** June 13, 2012, 08:35:40 PM »

I thought there's a lot of riders up in the Seattle area. Does 'Zilla need help getting into Oregon and up to Washington?

scottly · « **Reply #12 on:** June 13, 2012, 08:49:05 PM »

He sure does need help!!! Hmm, between Sean and Greg, two proven high-milers, Lefty could cover the whole PNW.

Duanob · « **Reply #13 on:** June 14, 2012, 09:47:34 AM »

Not sure where everyone else is in the PNW but I posted on another thread I am out this time around. Heading out on a 2 week vacation with the wife and dog on the boat starting this saturday. This will be our last 2 week vacation for a while since the wife starts a new job in July.

scottly · « **Reply #14 on:** June 15, 2012, 08:47:49 PM »

Thanks for checking in, Duanob. Anybody else? Do we just by-pass the whole PNW?

tlbranth · « **Reply #15 on:** June 16, 2012, 08:43:33 AM »

I don't know if this'd work: Mail Lefty on to the next leg (BC?). Mail him back here in a month or so and I'll take him through Washington and Oregon and forward him. Just an idea.

ofreen · « **Reply #16 on:** June 16, 2012, 09:36:11 PM »

Here is another proposal. Either I or scondon, or both of us, can get GZ to western Washington next weekend. Funjimmy, brandem, tweakin or anybody else there who wants to can take custody of Lefty. Perhaps in the course of their ride through the north Cascades into B.C. a handoff can be made to someone there. From there, is there anyone who can help Lefty make his way east?

I don't mind making the ride to western Washington if it means the relay can continue, but if Lefty is going to end up getting mailed anyway, the effort will be for naught. It would be about a 1200 mile round trip for me, and considering the prices in Oregon and Washington, at least a 125 buck expense just for gas. Again I don't mind doing it if the payoff is the relay goes on unabated, but if there is no one to carry on, it would be a futile (and expensive) gesture.

Can we get some discussion going around this?

tlbranth · « **Reply #17 on:** July 02, 2012, 09:51:21 AM »

I just got back from a pretty long bike trip but could probably handle a Godzilla transport if needed. What's the current status?

Jerry Rxman Griffin aka MuthaF'er · « **Reply #18 on:** July 02, 2012, 10:02:52 AM »

TL,

PM either SCondon or Ofreen ASAP. They are close to either riding or UPS'ing. The recent discussion has been in a different thread.

Hi TL, I mentioned in the Godzilla 2012 thread PNW section that you may be able to help..its way down the topic list.. hope it works out..

scottly · « **Reply #20 on:** July 02, 2012, 09:19:15 PM »

Bump...

scottly · « **Reply #21 on:** July 04, 2012, 10:32:49 PM »

One final bump. This is the stuff of friendships and fond memories, folks. Don't let this pass you by...

scottly · « **Reply #22 on:** July 06, 2012, 07:58:19 PM »

OK, I said one final bump, but I lied.

Lefty is now in Carnation, Washington, and he needs a ride....

scottly · « **Reply #23 on:** July 08, 2012, 08:03:52 PM »

BUMP!!!
