FWIW the relay hasn't been held up for lack of effort. It's moving about as fast as it can at this point.

Don't take offense to my post. Meant to stir the pot ? Yea maybe. :evil:
Meant to offend ? Nope
A contrast on motivation styles if you will.

Early 70.s in the military or in 2012 the kinder gentler speak.

I've not been around the forum for a good long while for a variety of reasons. I used to be quite active and even a moderator for a time. I'm giving thought to participating in the relay, but I've no experience at long distance riding. As I'm in northeast Kansas, I suppose I would meet someone south and then go north through at least the SE corner of Nebraska (NE) and into MO and then IA to meet the next rider.

I've got a Craigslist ad in Columbia, SC. I got one response but it was from a rider of a more modern Kawasaki (1990 something if memmory serves).

I'll put an ad in Charlotte NC too. That may help connect the dots between you two.

Hi Nate,
Northeast Kansas would put you in the middle of the third leg. I'm coordinating that portion of the relay. Have you put a pin in the map yet? The general route of the 3rd leg runs north to south kind of along the Mississippi River with diversions. We'll pick up the flag north of Chicago then head through WI and MN then up into Canada for a while then double back down south through ND, SD, IA, NE, KS, MO, OK, LA, TX (hope I didn't forget someone, I'm doing this from memory) at the end of our leg then on to NM for the western swing. I'll put you in my notes and I'll keep in touch as plans develop. Welcome aboard.
