Hey, everyone!!!

So, this is preliminary, but ya boy is FINALLY gonna be picking up a C14!!!

I'll be picking it up in CA, then hauling back across the US back to DC.

I'm planning on leaving DC on Tuesday afternoon, and arriving in SoCal on Wed 29 April. Pick up the bike, spend a day riding around the state, then Thursday 30 April, I'll start my journey back.

What I'm looking for are members who are willing to let me crash with them!

I need to be back in DC by Sunday evening, so I'll be doing essentially almost 3 Iron Butts in as many days.

  • Thursday or Friday I hope to leave either SoCal or Vegas (depending on where I end up) in the morning EARLY (like 4 or 5 am), and end somewhere in TX or OK.

  • Friday or Sat, I'd like to get from there to either TN or MO/IL (I'll be staying with family if I go to MO or IL)

  • Then Sat or Sun will be my final leg back to DC.


That said, I'm literally riding across the country, and have from Thurs-Sun to do it.

So who wants to let ol' Zak stay with them? Or at least visit?


Let's try to plan this thing!!!

You're welcome here at our place in Aurora, IL!

If I end up swinging north, I'll FOR SURE at least stop by so we can grab a bite to eat or something. I've got family in STL and Chicago, so I'll probably stay with them overnight if I do go the northern route, but I'll stop by your place absolutely!

I checked the schedule.
I will definitely be at the Albany house that weekend. I’m hosting a friend and his sons for smallmouth bass fishing.

I’ll still have a bed for you if you’re so inclined

Do you take a Cubs and Cardinals jersey with you when u visit them? Could make for an interesting visit if you happen to mix up the shirts....lmao. die hard cubbie fan here. Can't believe i.capitalized cardinal...
 
Z, if you're coming a more northerly route, we're just NE of Indy. If you go through Chicago, very close to "on the way" to DC, and we'd love to have you.
