JCZ, AK and Jonga ...sounds like you guys are having a blast!  Enjoy the rest of your trip, and be sure to go to Beale Street and Graceland while in Memphis.  Don't go to Graceland at night, however.

Heidi, keep in touch, and thanks for taking the pix.

It sounds like everyone is having fun. Damn I wish I was there. Hope you guys a great rest of your trip. Can't wait to see some of the pics(even the head turner). V I knew that this would happen. The SEEG is a great all around bike (not just for long trips) just ask Mrs.

Be Safe

THE DAWG

Calgary...JC will be laying out the plan in Cripple Creek...I am already thinking about shipping my bike to Cali, ride the coast thru OR and WA into Vancouver then over to Calgary.
You WILL need a dresser for that!/Bill

Ya Buddy, I'm in on the Calgary deal.  Almost in my backyard too, so I can get a great ride in on the round trip.

V, sure appreciate the updates and it has only added more excitement to the anticipation of meeting everyone and making the trip to CC in a couple days. [smiley=banana.gif]

JC and the group...glad ya'll had a good time in 'Nooga...it's a nice town.  Hope you had time to try out a few of the local brews, and it sounds like you have taken in a lot of the sights.  Also hope you guys got to do The Dragon on the way, or at least part of Western NC/Tenn.  Ya'll ride safe, and enjoy Memphis and the Blues!!   [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]  Wish I was still with you!!!!

Calgary sounds good to me!!!   [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif]  I've been to the Canadian Rockies via Calgary twice...it is the most beautiful place I've ever seen...bar none.  There's 250+ miles of road from there to Jasper that will absolutely take your breath away every time you look up, or round the next turn.  You can drop a camera and take a good picture there.   To go from California, up the coast into Vancover, then over to Calgary would probably be the most awesome trip anyone could ever hope to do.  Shipping to Calif. then riding to Calgary, then back home...that sounds like something I MUST do!!! [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif] [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif]

V...they got a  [smiley=banana.gif] at the local Dealer here in B'ham.  A person can't ever have too many bikes, you know...it's like golf or fishing...you can't expect a person to do either of those things with just one club or one rod/reel...same thing with riding...you need one for hot rodding/bar hopping/ short cruises, then another for all of the above, plus long distances.   You'd be lookin' good sitting on that yellow SEEG!!   [smiley=banana.gif] [smiley=banana.gif] [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif]

If I ship mine will you take care of me?   [smiley=huepfenjump3.gif]

Ernie wants to know as well   [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif]

I'd love to ship and ride, but I think I'd have to buy a Black & Blue before then!

Wouldn't a  [smiley=pumpkin.gif] match your V-rod better? [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

I'm getting the shakes and the withdrawl symptoms........JC and the Coast to Coast Gang need to post soon [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

[TheVgirl]

Should I call them and get an update to post? [smiley=nervous.gif]

[RJ749]

Should I call them and get an update to post? [smiley=nervous.gif]

Geez, that would be great V, I hit the road tomorrow at oh dark hundred, maybe you could talk with them tonight sometime.

Thanks for the offer and hope you catch them.

I'm so damned excited I can't stand myself.

[TheVgirl]

Talk about ironic!  I was going to get the phone as it stopped ringing!  It was the Coast-to-Coast gang!  JC, Andy, Jon, and Jock are standing under an awning outside West Plains, Missouri trying to stay dry.  Since we "bonded" so well in the rain, they thought it'd be funny to call and see if I'd like to take a ride!  HA HA LOL!   [smiley=ROFLOL.gif]  NOT!!!  

They have traveled all two-lane roads since leaving Chattanooga.  They went to the Jack Daniels distillery on the way through to Memphis.  JC said, "JR really took care of us over the last couple days!  If you make a post, please extend our gratitude to JR and his wife.  The $1.98 tour of Memphis was great and they took excellent care of us!"   [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

They are heading out now since there is a break in the rain.

I'm sure JR will post a detailed ride report later.

Rjob and the rest of the members going to Cripple Creek, I hope you have a safe and fun ride, a a great rally!!  The more I hear about it, the more I wish I had made the decision to attend!   :'(I can't wait to hear all the stories and see all the photos afterwards of Cripple Creek!  You guys can always make the trip to Maggie Valley!!!  Isn't it the weekend before Myrtle Beach and only a week before Biketoberfest?  For an experienced rider, it'd be a short or small detour!  We won't discuss how long it will take a novice....  I'm sure JC will fill you in on that later!

I'll also send Hyde (aka Heidi) an email and see if she can go back and add a narrative of each day with some of the 800+ photos!!

[hd-dude]

I heard from JC, AK, Jonga, & Jock this Morning. They are having a great time on the ride. They had just crossed into Missouri and were taking shelter from a rain storm.

[JR]

Well this is JR and I'm sorry for a late report on my report for the gangs visit thru Memphis. I want to start by saying what a joy and privilege it was to finally meet Y'all after a long time of corresponding on this wonderful site. We know each other thru this site but when you see each other and talk it goes a lot deeper. My wife Debbie and I truly enjoyed the little time we got to spend together and want to thank you for stopping by and being a part of our life for the last couple days.

I was keeping in contact with JC and it worked out fine on the timing of their arrival. I got a call from JC when they were in Sommerville TN and was able to meet them on HWY 64 and bring them in. After a short greeting and meeting Jon (Jonga) for the first time we headed to a hotel up the road to get that situated. JC needed to get his pictures downloaded to a CD as he filled up his chip already. It was a great opportunity to show him one of our famous sites in Memphis besides Walmart.....It is Walgreens!

As we lined up our bikes it made for a nice photo op. So here are the bikes lined up.
