BrianT Posted July 16, 2002 Share Posted July 16, 2002 In the eternal words of Elwood, "It's a 106 miles to Chicago. We got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses. Hit it." Leaving Tues at 5 pm for Gunnison via Monument Valley and Paonia. Bikes all good on fluids, air and TB sync. Bags are already packed and routes programmed into the GPS. Smelly Ceegars are all ready to go, the Mp3 player has 400 songs in it and Meghan is giddy as a school girl. Tomorrow is going to be a long day waiting for her to get off of work before we can leave.

bigmak Posted July 17, 2002 Share Posted July 17, 2002 Paul, Look for the wild bunch from the NW on Sat. around Paonia. It will be the late afternoon .......... I forced OldRider to go through Soda Springs, ID, so I could check on a namesake there. He was a doctor and treated one of the injured "Wild Bunch" while in hiding, at the turn of the century. It also was our favorite movie in H.S., and we adopted the name then too. Good call OldBunchedUp. Link to comment
