He decided not to do it.
The longest rides I've done were through a couple of states to get to the beach on the other side. I still want to do a cross-country ride (or at least most of it). There's not much in California that I give a crap about, but I would like to see the deserts out west.
Get thee to Texas. I'm organizing a guy ride for June 2009. I put one together every year. It us just guys and we can scratch our nuts, fart, drink cogniac/beer/tequila/whiskey (you get the idea), eat what ever we want ...... the list is endless.
We have gone to Big Bend National park a couple of times (about 750 miles from us here), Rode the Dragon in North Carolina, gone to the Ozark mountains, gone to the hill country and in JUNE 2009 we are riding to Angel Fire, New Mexico to ride the mountains and jump up into Colorado.
Chicks picked up along the way are not welcome at the house. LOL
