Carl,
I'm leaving Santa Monica heading to Chicago starting July 6. I'll be riding my '03 Road King Classic. I'll let you know any tips after the trip. But for now, internet research, maps and books are the best way to plan.

- About Me:
- I've been teaching acting and theater for over 30 years and look forward to retirement in a year or two so I can ride my Road King year-round instead of only in the summer.
My plans for this summer's ride will be to ride from Portland, Or, to the Pacific Coast down to Santa Monica and then ride the Mother Road to Chicago on the Road King. After a niece's wedding in Iowa, I'll head back home through Sturgis for the bike rally, Estes Park and the Rockies and finally across Utah to Bonneville where I'll turn Northwest and head home.

- I'll tell you after my trip this July. My dad used to work for Sunoco/DX, and a good friend restores gas pumps and service station memorabilia, so I'm looking forward to the many gas stations along the way.

- Hey Rick,
I love talking with and meting all roadies. I won't be able 2 make it to the festival in Flagstaff this year. When you figure out the dates of your trip be sure and let me know. I donate my time at Afton Station in Afton , OK on
Saturday or Sunday so it would help if you could make it around those days.

- Sounds like a great tour you have planned! I plan to drive my '55 Chevy pickup though Missouri this spring, provided it's ready to go.

- Hey Rick, Thanks for joining us! David Sanger is the drummer for Asleep at The Wheel. I sell his music and he sells mine. He's a member here if you'd like to drop him a note? Happy New Year Rick! Stay healthy so you can do a lot of riding.
