RAA 9--"GETTIN HIGH" PRE-RIDE June 22, 23 2014

[Ogremeister]

I can do that, I can leave after work on Friday and be at my sisters place Friday night. Then meet you in Warrenton, MO on Saturday morning, what time you heading out Saturday Morning? I know Warp is going to and he mentioned the route he was taking but I forgot... This way I get to see my family Friday night.

On the way back are you planning to stop in Warrenton again?

The way back is wide open, as of now. I have family in Utah & friends in Wyoming...I'm retired...no plan-no schedule...for the trip back.

Warrenton - Co Springs is approx 12 hrs & we will gain an hour when we hit mountain time...

I would say leave Warrenton @ 7:30am central time...

How far is your sister's from Warrenton?

I am planning on staying here in Warrenton

Parade rides, trailers...next thing you know someone will want to follow a van.....

I rarely listen to music on m/c...it is fun to get a call...which connects hands free.
I never use the sound on my GPS on m/c but I do in a car...I love (via earbuds) listening to music when hiking & x/c skiing (solo)...with the earphones in, the phone will also answer hands free...so i end up taking calls when i'm mostly out if breath...at times....gotta love technology.

You know I used my GPS sans sound for the 11,500 mile criss-cross country ride I did last summer.
I found it difficult with no sound, especially when the sunlight washed out the screen. I look forward to see how the Sena performs for me.

Holy $hit, Tex!
That be a monster.
Since you be hauling, might as well bring the Harley so you can blame it.
