Yes 2 days are needed. I grabbed the Maryland tag as an experiment to see how the riding gear I have now would do in 30 degree weather before I decided to go on a 12 hour journey. The MD tag was a total of 3 hours round trip, and though my hands and torso were fine, my legs and feet were frozen solid. Not good for long distance riding. So though many of you may feel that I am not a team player or being a wuss, I am just trying to play the game as it was intended by Blinkerfluid without having an accident.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-comfficeffice" /><o></o> <o></o> Page 1 quote of the NA TOR.<o></o> #5 Read the Rules, understand the intent of the game. Quality not Quantity. If you want to tag a stop sign at the corner of "I'm impatient" and "Hurry Up" roads just to up the tag count, play a local game instead.. There are no rules that say you can't play more than one game at a time, so if this one sits for a week or two while the stars align for a big move, then so be it.. Obviously don't sit on it for weeks on end if you have no plans to actually take it somewhere though.<o></o> <o></o> Please allow me some time here, as the weather has been very cold in Maryland and I am waiting on some more heated gear before taking the egg on a trip. The egg will be heading south to a very interesting spot, so that it can be carried away to better weather very soon.<o></o> <o>Chris</o>
Eggy must be getting cabin fever by now, so if your new stuff doesn't come today you can swing by my place in Rockville and borrow my heated jacket and gloves.
Eggy will be on the road this coming Sunday 1/6/13 at 10:30 am heading in a southerly direction.:jose
monday.. friday.. sunday.. one week. two weeks. a month. take your time. I'll go pick eggy up in Key West when you get there. all srs... enjoy the ride, and safe travels.
Leaving at that time, from where I think you are, heading in a southerly direction, you might want to take into account the traffic around M&T Bank Stadium and avoid that like the plague. Lots of others will be headed that way after having had a few beers for breakfast...
Whoa! I hadn't thought of that, as I don't watch football. I think I will head a little west and take 29 south instead. Thanks reedg01 for saving me a lot of headache.
Thanks Gimpy How did you know that I am not going to Key West..... ever? Time is relative, and relatives are a pain in the arse. The new tag will be interesting to say the least. The motel is booked and the bike is packed.
What didn't happen? Wink wink, nudge nudge, know what I mean, know what I mean? MPFC quote. Thanks Dyno, have a great time at the DC show.
Quite welcome! Enjoy your the ride and your new heated gear. Look forward to the new drop, you have obviously put a lot of thought into it!
Eggy ETD 10-10:30 am. Heading due south. This will not be a major cross country trip by a long shot, but it will be an interesting one. I may not be able to post the new tag until Monday evening though.
