The "other" 2011 Trip - Page 2

derf · 09-20-2010, 10:09 AM

Im planning 2 tire changes, street to knobbies, then back tothe street tires I brought with me leaving the knobbies up there. Gonna bring the tires with me. Also inner tubes too.

Those cost associated with prepping for the trip aren't factored in, tent, bug spray, ridimg gear, oil filters, extra levers, and anything i think i will need. The only things I want to buy is oil, food, and gas

I would plan for more money needed just in case still. I would worst case scenario it and see what you need just in case and lower the budget from that some. Heck, you are only planning $27 a day for food. I would up that just in case you eat/drink more.

When are ya'll planning to go?

I have a few roads around here to play on

I can show you a better route to get from the Harrisburg area to I-80 if you want. Would only add about a half hour to 45 minutes to your trip.

Well thats not on your map, jack.

I really wanna make it through NYC... I've never been and it would really bring a mark contrast to the trip.

Mr Lefty · 09-20-2010, 05:41 PM

from what I've found... the longest distance between gas stops is about 300km or 200miles Goose Bay to Churchill Falls.

I'm glad to hear but don't remember any talk about the trip.

You know you are both welcome as long as you need. Plus you know once in Michigan I'm your embassador.

Anyway, about when will you be in Detroit? How much time to Niagra? Up for joiners? I would consider joining you riding there and then either return from PA or stop by Mark's to steal his wife again!
