Default 2 weeks, 3,600+ miles, 6 states of crawling

Here's an open invitation to anyone that wants to join me and lives along the route:

I'm driving from Augusta to Moab.

My route is here: http://maps.yahoo.com/dd_result?newa...ah&tcountry=us

As it looks now I'm leaving Augusta Wednesday morning, staying in Columbia, MO that night, leaving Thursday morning and driving until I reach Denver.

I'll stay in Denver overnight then convoy to Moab with the Colorado crew.

I'll leave Moab, return to Colorado, do some crawling with the Colorado boys (probably end up staying a night in CO), then head back across the country, stopping to crawl with JohnRobHolmes and the guys in MO. The 16th of Sept I'll be crawling with the TSC guys at the FOTO comp outside Louisville, KY.

Anyone that is willing to split fuel costs during their portion of the trip is welcome to ride along.

Ok, quick update.

I'm driving from Augusta to Moab.

My route is here: http://maps.yahoo.com/dd_result?newa...ah&tcountry=us

As it looks now I'm leaving Augusta Wednesday morning, staying in Columbia, MO that night, leaving Thursday morning with Dezfan and JonRobHolmes and all their chit, and driving until we reach Denver.

We'll stay in Denver overnight then convoy to Moab with the Colorado crew.

We'll leave Moab, return to Colorado, do some crawling with the Colorado boys (probably end up staying a night in CO), then head back across the country, stopping to drop off Dezfan and JohnRobHolmes and do some crawling with the guys in MO. The 16th of Sept I'll be crawling with the TSC guys at the FOTO comp outside Louisville, KY.

Anyone that is willing to split fuel costs during their portion of the trip is welcome to ride along.

There might be 1 seat left.

Too bad you're staying on I-24 thru TN, instead of taking I-40. I could have you pick me up at exit 108 and drop me off in Memphis, where I plan to meet Kenny and Joey. That way I wouldn't have to leave my vehicle for the Memfricans to pillage!

Hey, I see you're going thru Atlanta.... you could pick up Fish.

What are you, some kind of pervert? JIA and I were simpily referring to a photo shoot for the center spread of the mag. I swear, some people.





















No mam, not the cable I understood you had some plumbing problems. I have the pipe to lay if you have a place I can put it..........
