Still in the planing stages. We will prob. decide in Kerrville when we will start the trip. I 'm thinking early to mid June on meeting Lola on Rt 66 in Ill somewhere. After that we won't do too much planning as she will want to see stuff on 66. May only make 200-300 a day & May spend a couple days in one place. You are more than welcome to hook up with us to ride to AF museum. We might even go there with you. Have not been in several years & it has expanded a lot. 2-3 days to see everything I bet. They have free parking there & museum is free also, i guess it has not changed. Are you going to be in Kerrville ?

About Kerrville I'd like to make it if I can get out of the snow, some years we get it till mid May. Will know more about 13 April with a 5 day favorable weather forecast. My trip to Ca will start early Jun and will follow I90 with a lot of side trips(Rushmore, Yellowstone, Beartooth and Olympia air museum)we'll probably cross pass some where. First long trip and I don't want it to hurt.

Remind me when we are in Kerrville about your trip and maybe I can show you a good ride between Flagstaff and Kingman, AZ.

I am hoping for early June so I can get out of Texas before it gets miserably hot. Last year I rode 407 from Altus, OK on July 4th. It was the final leg for me of our 21 day trip. I used my electric jacket liner in the mountains and my hydration vest in Texas. orag:

In Michigan's LP, I think the west side is much better for scenery. We can ride with you for a ways and show you. Text or call me for possible routes. Lola has my number.

So, how many weeks will you be on the road?

So, how many weeks will you be on the road?

Well, no way to know Pat. Lola has never been on Rt 66 so we will take it slow & stop at all the places for her to visit. No schedule or resv's. We will just plan day to day for a leisurely ride .Once we leave Oatman,Az. will prob cover more ground a day . Just scenic riding from that point. We will ride up to Wa.state & run Rt 2 back to the UP of Mi & down across Mackinaw Bridge. WHY,? You want to go with us ?? You are more than welcome. We will be doing the ride that was in Hog Tales issue next to last issue, except we will be riding it west to east .

It would be so much fun if you ride with us. Last year I rode to Dodge City, Kansas to meet them, then from Valentine, Nebraska back home alone. I wasn't scared, didn't get lost and had the good judgement to buy gas when the opportunity presented itself on the back roads in Kansas and Nebraska. Even though I did, there was one leg of my trip that my low fuel light lit up. I was watching the GPS for the next gas station. Garmin assured me that there were 3 or four, so I didn't freak out. I don't see that light very often because I am a gasoholic.

I have been on and off several times in different states, but never on a specified Rt 66 trip. I sure hope, for the sake of our country, that things are back to normal soon.

LOLA, Well ,no Kerrville.. I guess we have to wait & see when we can even leave on this trip. Makes no diff to me. We will just have to get on the phone one day & have maps handy. WE can decide then where to meet. If it gets hot, well thats why we bought the cooling vests.

If we are able to do Kerrville in the fall, we can always meet up someplace like we did last year and loop around. I would enjoy seeing my cousins in Kansas. I am sure Kay and Jim would like to see you and Janiene again.
