Bonii during the practice rally on January 17.
A pre-rally run up to Eldorado Springs, CO, to test the bike and equipment. |
Memphis. Cool Elvis stuff. |
The Indianapolis Motor Speedway. |
Stone Mountain near Atlanta. |
Gatorland in Orlando. |
Gateway Arch, as seen from the railyards in East St. Louis. Stopped here during the night so the bonus didn't count. But I lived to tell about it. |
An 8-day ride. ATGATT.
Relaxed and ready to ride. |
Push-pins all over the USA and Canada. (I used them in S&T also.) |
Speeding through Colorado. |
The first 4 days. What I thought was a well-planned route of 4760 miles. Maybe it was just an OK route.
The second 4 days. A rushed, poorly planned 4152 mile route. But I went to Florida instead of Canada and finally saw Cape Canaveral.
Rickwood Field in Birmingham, AL. |
Billy Carter's gas station in Plains, GA. Placemark in wrong spot, 0 points. |
Alligator Point Yacht Basin near St. Teresa, FL. |
Cape Canaveral Light House, FL. |
Deal's Gap, NC. At this time of the year, it was dark, but traffic was light so it was a great ride. But since I didn't submit the photo in the time allowed, 0 points. Priceless. |
Thanks to Dave Derrick and his team for putting on the
Winter Armchair Rally,
an excellent event which was very challenging and a lot of fun.
Thanks also to Rick Miller and Jim Puckett (
Mason Dixon 20/20
and the NotSupermanRally)
