Alright wyoming folks, we'll be leaving at around 11am and arrive in vegas sometime in the afternoon the next day... er wait i'd make a lonely face if i had one

 

You're gonna be there Ireland? Awesome!!

 

must wake...up....early....

 

Yeow ... if the current local temps hold for the next two weeks, this is gonna be a scorcher. Be prepared folks --- light clothing (very little clothing for the ladies hehe), drink/bring lots of water, sunscreen, etc.

Thanx for PM info, Jorge.

 

I'm in Everett so just let me know when and where should I grab a walkie talkie??

 

i'll bring my walkies so yeah that'd help.

i suppose renton makes the most sense as that's the furthest south for us.

southcenter maybe? barnes and noble parking lot as usual?

 

Dondo and Bignatex - Barnes and Noble at Southcenter on Thursday morning sounds good. How about 9am? I haven't driven that far myself before though, so I'm open for suggestions. We need to be in Barstow by 8am. I'll have my walkies also.

 

if the 3 of you are coming down together, I recommend you plan on someone bringing a spare tire or at least one of those tire plug kits JUST IN CASE
walkies are always a good idea.
make sure you guys plan on pulling over every now and then to either stretch your legs or power nap


can't wait!

 

Good idea... I ride with a spare. I also got that "Road Wrap" that MM was talking about . Gonna do the coolant flush, tire rotation, oil change, check belts/hoses/fluids thing next week

We've got probably 6 gas stops along the way, and I'm thinkin Imma need a power nap fo sho

 

hey people just to give you a heads up those coming in from California via 15 be careful of CHP. i just returned from Cathedral city(palm springs) yesterday and that was the most i have seen on that stretch.

 

sounds good im thinking of grabbing a spare as well =) but my schedule is so iffy right now with my checking out of the navy i get called like every 10 minutes to come sign a paper that im scared to leave base =)

 

yeah, there's a ton of CHP on that highway these days.
Fortunately we'll have a minnimum of 3 radar detectors in the CA caravan so I'm hoping we can make it to Vegas with no police interference.
Plus we're leaving quite early so we won't be rushing to get there.

thanks for the heads up though!

 

I'm still deciding whether I'm coming down on Thurs or Fri... but, if it's Thurs, you boys had better stop in Tacoma on your way thru so I can join up!

 

we were gonna meet in southcenter but can meet further south no prob. we usually use the krispy kreme at the mall as a meetup spot

 

You're gonna go? Awesome!

 

KrispyKreme it is! I should know by tonight whether I'm driving down friday night, or thursday morning. (fingers crossed for thursday...)

 

foxey: I'd recommend driving down Thursday if at all possible considering the distance you'll be covering.
if you drive Friday night, you'll miss dinner / drinks + go karting and most likely the Saturday morning drive which is really the highlight of this trip.
You'll be there in time for dinner at the Hofbrahaus (if you decide to join us) but that's the end of the official weekend for us.

What I'm saying is shoot for Thursday, it'll make the trip more enjoyable. I know its' dependent on your man but I'm sure you have ways to convince him to leave a day early...

 

Well, he's military, so taking a day off isnt really an option. UGH i JUST found out he might have to work thru the weekend which would mean no Vegas for Angela

 

just go without him.
If he's working, he won't even notice.

 

tempting... very tempting...

 

hey that's what i said. when he gets off he can fly down and meet you.

 

haha i cant wait only a week and a half away!!! is ay if he is stuck working he shouldnt ruin the AMAZING meet for you!! lol

 

FIXED.

 

haha

 

^^ lmfao
