    Making a long trip, anyone need parts relay?

    Alright. My trip down to Florida to meet up with Lonesometriz in may is defiantly a go and I'm working on a few details for my trip. I plan on traveling from Maryland to Florida, then to Tennessee, and then to Pennsylvania and then back to maryland. My exact route is not completely set in stone yet so I wanted to offer up my traveling adventure to anyone who may need some parts/a trike relayed between these states.
    Now, I'm converting a boat trailer and I'll be taking my 250r, and 200x with me to go riding, I plan on bringing back another 250r, and I figure i have enough room for 4 trikes total, and some parts + the space left in my pickup bed.

    if anyone needs help getting stuff across these states give me a message/ post a reply and we can work something out. I'd want to meet close to major highways so as to keep my extra travel low and all I ask is a few bucks in hopes of keeping my gas costs from beign stupid. Also, while in florida I'll be looking for someplace for me and my girlfriend to stay so if anyone has a sugestion please chime in.

    I only have a month or so and then I graduate from college on May 22 and hope to leave hte 23 if not the 22nd. Its kinda my yay for me and graduating vacation trip and I hope to meet a lot of people along the way and have a good time (and hopefully my gf won't dump me before we get home from all the trike stuff lol) anywho.......just shout out if you wanna meet up for an hr or two of ridding or if you need some parts relayed. I have one week though so i need to get my plans in order.

    Alright. catch you allz later.

    Why don't you make your "Yay for me" trip in june to Indiana? Just have the TF car pool from Florida, haul up the stuff and save you the trip. Swing thru Tenn. on the way & Let's ride man!!! Trike Fest is 7 weeks away.

    Man, I would love to make it out to trike feast. It would be so awsome. I'd need to get a new pipe for my R first though. It just recently developed a pin hole and I really think its effecting my top end. I wanna get a ESR atc pipe but my funds are limited at the moment so i'm kinda just babying it along for now.

    But anyway. Postponing the trip isn't really gonna fly I to many promises already extended to too many people and not only that but I'm going to be visiting family and thats already set up etc etc....but...if I get the Job i'm going after then a second trip in June is not out of the question!.

    I'm serious...i'm so glad college is almost done and over with.. This summer should be the one i remember for all my life.....Sometime I wanna make it to some dunes too. if not this summer then next summer, but i've already started making the sign, "3 wheels in the sand or bust" lol

    Indiana as far as i know.
    Heh. Maybe some one up there would be willing to make an intimidation visit for me? I traded a kicker for a kicker for my 500r project and the guy up there stiffed me. I think he must have given me a false name or something but the address has to be good. that kicker I shipped went somewhere and UPS confimed it. lol

    But anyway...the guy kept emailing me for about a month sayings he'll ship it he'll ship it but then the email stoped comming and he stopped responding....I bet he would feel funny if a couple guys showed up on his front porch to collect a CR500R kick starter. lol
