Dear list;

I am never without surprise how the list lets me know how many of you are true professionals. Your talk about shipping and packing is truly an intriguing subject. While reading I imagine being on the road after picking up a bike at a list members house and going to the next list members house to either pick up or drop off. All the time watching the on board computer for new pick ups or questions on location or when I will be in a certain area. Seems to come to mind the one member who imagined how something might get ruined. This is not the only way of keeping valuable rides safe. Packing is important but it seems to me the shipper is the problem!!! Lets face it some one who does not care about there job will sometimes fail for whatever reason.

Question to all, if I could be tracked by GPS at any time by computer and phone via Two Way, could one criss-cross the country make a decent wage and insure safe shipping. Would a planned route help with times when one would be in certain areas?
