For the last 2 years I've had a great trip all planed out, maped out, and almost ready to roll when something major happens and my plans have to change. This year was looking like a repeat with some mysterious wireing issues but they got figured out and i've got almost 500 trouble free miles sinse then. I did have a spark plug wire fail today but hell if thats the kind of issues I'm going to have I'll be in heaven!
On to the trip: leaving Tampa area either the 19th or the 20th, heading up route 19 then hoping on 441 and taking that way up to the Blue Ridge and I'll be riding that up to the end hoping on and off 81 camping along the way. Going to take around 4-5 days to get up to MD. I have some job interviews up there. After 2 days there I'm headed back down to NC to hang with the family, my wife is flying in with my son to my ol'mans house. After a week there the whole family is traveling back to MD for a few weeks and some more interviews, then off to upstate NY where I'm from...then its a going to be a pritty quick stomp home. Going to be around a 4500 mile trip all and all. Going to be gone a little over a month.
Got packed tonight, goning to run around with the pack on for a couple of days to make sure I'm solid. Had the little man helping me out. I'm pritty stoked!

 

Nice scoot. Hope those pipes were cool. Good luck on the job search. Enjoy the ride, It will put you in the right frame of mind for the interviews.

 

Sounds like your going to have a great time.

 

sounds like a lot of fun, ride safe

 

Dude - I'm jealous! Your little guy has "iron" feet there...LOL. Post some photo's along the way if you can.

 

thanks guys! yeah mr cole has some iron feet alright hahaha...pipes were nice and cool, he loves climbin around on the scoot, thats a big reason i changed the looks of her, wanted him to grow up with a passion for the machine not for a piece of untouchable art

 

That sounds like alot of fun.

 

Sounds like a great trip! Ride Safe!
