Hey All!
Looks like LANCE!.......Will be trying for the ''6TH TOUR WIN!'' Anyway, we ''THE GANG!'' are planning on a Motor home visit to the tour and hope to catch several stages..........Inbetween we will be hunting down old bike shops and wholesalers for their old goods, in fact we already know of a few! Dropping in on these sources really depends if the Tour is within striking distance, if so then it's a go! There's also a nice size city that we had buzzed through late one night of which we think there might be some goodies still hanging around! In fact I was thinking! HEY! We should stop and drive around a little to have a look! But that didn't happen, we more into finding gas for this monster! After finding gas! We pulled up to a rest stop at 2:00 AM to make up some food! WELL! IT LOOKED LIKE WE WOKE UP THE HOOD!...........The lights of sleeping homes were waking up to take a look at what was going on!........We had a little to eat and off we went. As for the tour, We are plannig to visit the Tour for a day and buzz off the next day or 2 looking for old bike parts and back to the tour for another day. While sitting around we could be watching the tour and counting our booty all together!...Of course this is if anything was found! Anyway! If anyone is interested, your welcome to join in on the party!....Sticking point tough there would have to be several interested fore there will have to be a 2nd motor home, who knows there might be more interest and a need for more wheels and then again maybe non?.......If there is interest then a 6 person Motor home would be good for 3 to 4 persons, need to make sure that there will be extra room for booty finds!
Until then I am waiting on the rout of next years ''TOUR!''.....Maybe we'll be doing a little recon in advance.......It will be our last summer here before we move shop STATE SIDE! Last summer and we want to make it a great one!
Any, just a tought and was thinking out loud.................Any interest, let me know.
Bring a bike, we'll ride and drink!...................And fall into the drink ( DITCH! ) while seaking out our passions!.................CHEERES!
