Sweet!  Maine to Florida!

Now we need south and west.

Would three different relays work? maine to FL and the west side and from side to side? until we get a good amount of people? O0

I'd say the more the merrier.

The baton must be carried by a GS at all times during the relay.

I could do a south/west coast stint
Follow the path of least acceptance!

Another thought is that i travel from OR - WA - MT alot, next summer i will drive from OR / WA to MT (i will be bringing the bike as well) and can travel around from there if need be (though a good chunk would be in a vehicle unfortunately so i would prefer not to break the bike chain)

I call Louisiana

I drew a shape for you on the map.  Basically from Lake Charles to Baton Rouge, over to the MS-AL border and then back along the coast encompassing New Orleans.  Feel free to check it out and change it.

Thanks for the bump.  I expect this to slow down a bit in the Winter months.  I'm still thinking about it a lot though...

Dry_Humor, I like the Sportbike drawing that you made.  I think it should be the logo for the relay.  Would you have any problems sending me the image file?

i actually have a bit of a draft for a banner, i just have to scan it in then work on it in the computer to make it look presentable.

i'll work on it then be sure to post it soon. i've been busy drawing my fiancee's christmas presents lately.

jestercinti

NP...you are quite the artist.  I loose at Pictionary all the time cause I can't draw shaZam!.  I'm like Apple Maps...Good intentions, bad execution.

We have any idea of a start date? I know there's still a quite a bit of logistics to figure.
Friendly fire, isn't. But it's the most accurate. Semper Fi

 :D Man, i just noticed this thread and read thru it. This is kick a$$! I'm definitely gonna be part of this. Ive updated the map and am also wondering if theres any updates yet?
Rub some dirt in it, you'll be fine!

jestercinti

No firm dates as of yet. Early April sound OK?

I can travel a ways to get the baton to the first GSTwinner. Where it goes from there is the beauty of the adventure!
