This Sunday I'll be driving 385 miles just to pickup Godzilla?  :o  Has anyone or will anyone go further for their handoff?  ???

AZ, my friend, you kick ass! Thanks for taking care of the great expanses of the Western US!

Colorado Springs, CO to Spanish Fork, UT to pick up and Colorado Springs, CO to Topeka, KS to drop off. Both are close to 500 miles one way I think. Don't have the Google map feature on this computer's tool bar. AND I'll be on a loaner bike too. That's the plan anyway. Damn, I love the open road  ;D

Greg/Ofreen is going to do some serious miles by himself too and on a 130,000+ mile 75 750F.

Who else out there? CBGhia is doing some #$%* too! Silverback kicked butt.
As of today 3/13/2012 my original owner 75 CB750F has made it through 3 wives, er EX-wives. Free at last.  ;-)

Actually a little over 127,000 right now, but should be well over 130K by the time the Idaho leg is done.

Just like the looks of having another Sean/Shawn/whatever in the heavy miles list. 540 to pick him up, and another 161 before I called it a day.
Give me..a frame to build a bike on, and my imagination will build upon that frame
