This june I will celebrate my midlife BirthdayThe big 50. I am going to try and plan a long road trip so that I can ride in as many of the Western states that I can get in in 3 weeks... What I am thinking of doing is getting a trailer to haul the Dragon in so that i dont get all the tedious <travel> miles on the bike but I will get to ride the <fun> miles on it.. I want to trailer it so I can stay at parks and such then take Day tours in the most enjoyable riding areas.. I dont have anyone currently to go with me, so if there are other riders that would like to join up for fun rides, let me know. I plan on trying to get the time off around the end of May and first of June. Also anyone who has suggestions for rides get back with me. I would like to include Yosemite, Grand canyon, Pac coast Hiway and yellowstone. I am looking forward to it and the possibility of meeting some new friends in the process.

Sounds like a fun trip Steve.

          But ... er .. a.. I thought mid-life was 70  Shocked  ?

  That's why I wasn't preparing for 'my' ride til 2012.  I guess that wouldn't be very good since Nostrodamus and others say we won't be ridin Valks then  Cry OR ANYTHING ELSE!

well I figure mid usually means the middle and since I dont know of anyone living to be 140 I will have to stick with my 50 as mid.... I am looking forward to it and I am looking forward to the possibility of finding others to meet up with and ride with..

yes Honda West is a great place. very helpful. when I thought I lost my only key they were able to get me another one the same day... a couple of days before I found where the old one was..
I will only be able to take off 2 or 3 weeks and I figure i will need every bit of that to tour the west..
