Are you back "home" again already? I didn't expect to hear from you until tomorrow!

If you care to sit down and type up a list of the major cities along your route, I'd be happy to generate a trip map for you ... for posterity or something.

Just kidding - that cartoon is from page 236 of David Hough's Proficient Motorcycling (http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1889540536/qid=1088490400/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/104-0061681-9510325?v=glance&s=books).

If you rode 14 days (based on 2 weeks) that is 500 miles per day. Awesome! :cheers:

Are you still on the road or have you made it home yet? I am a little confused if you were going to be coming by this weekend. :dunno:

Here's your map: http://www.bbburma.net/Temp/DavidImel_CrossCountryTrip.jpg

It's ~520 KB in size, so I put it in my Temp area. I'll leave it there until you tell me to delete it or I feel like I need the space back.

Let me know if anything is inaccurate, or if you would like a smaller version, or whatever....

WOW! :o

I'm impressed!

And to think I am still questioning whether or not a 3 hour trip to PA is 'safe' for me since I am new to my GS. :oops:
