    SLOVFR left a few days ago on his coast to coast jaunt. Last I checked he had made it to IL. He is using a GPS tracker prg on his droid so you can click anywhere on his route and get info. I don't know if he wanted it posted to the public or not, but screw him, he didn't say not to!

    yeah we asked him before he left and he hemmed and hawed about which way he was going and how long he would have... I think he ended up spending a night near Denver.

    According to that tracker, he is making unbelievable time. ALl the way from Lompok to Jacksonville and half way back. He obviously is not traveling by pogo stick.

    that bastard was in Tennessee and he didn't stop and see me....

    judging by his average speed of the trees running away from him he isn't on a sight seeing tour.....

    ,Sorry everyone as the trip was a whirlwind tour with 17 states in 17 days. Made it a family trip this time. Did not post here cause one I didn't know where I would be or how long I'd be there. Spent a day in Utah with dad, two days in Missouri with one brother, two days in Florida with other brother and a day at moms before coming home. Only stop made was at our Presidents and CEO of this site to personally thank him or was it punch him in the mouth, I forget. Michael was a great host for lunch and a super nice guy. Then back on the rocket for the trip home. Would have loved to stop and visit everyone if only I didn't have to work. Trust me otherwise I'd still be out there crashing at everyone's house :) . Next year another adventure but I'll be taking 24 days off then! I'll post up some pics when I get a chance.

    He missed me. He was in a hurry to get back to me.
    I left him the next day.

    I'm fickle like that.

    I hope next year's ride report is better than this failure. 17 states and not a single photo or good story to share with the class?
