Yup, one patch left after mine was handed to me at the hand off. Looks like plenty stickers, one patch.

Made it back home yesterday around 4:00. Day started off at 46 degrees and cloudy but warmed to 52 by by the time we got on the road. We finally got some sun somewhere north of Tupelo but was still a by chilly. Total miles for the trip, 544 miles. Total miles for the two legs that I rode, 824. The old girl ran great with no issues.

This was an awesome experience and I appreciate the opportunity to participate, and all the great people and new friends I have met.

Great going boatdrinks it's good to hear that besides the weather being a little off everything went well for you guys.

Leg 2 down

Now what ?

It's on to leg #3.
I will pass it to WABBMW from Houston in one, or maybe, two weeks.
Not sure if they are going to change the route like KZRage did on leg #2 to get the logistics to work out better or not.
My opinion was to move it out West so more riders can keep it going while the Mid West was under a blanket of snow

Nice that you got to stretch the legs on that KZ650! They really are great bikes. Ed

I provided the ride stickers & put the last of them in with the packet seemed like there were
plenty of patches left at the handoff at least enough to finish the next leg????
I would look again but I think they were a bonus I dont remember anyone volunteering them

I don't know where they came from but a guess would be from extra moneys generated through the sales of Relay T-shirts if so , thank you Topper.

I would again like to say thank you to Ram for getting the stickers made.

It would be cool to have an actual Relay patch made somewhere down the line, I'm in for 20 bucks to get it rolling if someone can make it happen

I agree with you on this, maybe a vote is in order .

I will be off work a few more weeks I could do some research but quite franly I am broke so no way to pony up the money to heve them made the initial order would have to be paid for

of there is any interest or different artwork or stein have a problem with it we could start another thread for rider Patches ( I think just a little bigger than the ride stickers same design)

Dave (dkmk) had the patches made up.

Thank you Dave, I will wear it proudly

Is the flag moving this weekend on to Leg#3?

Things got quiet so thought I'd bump this to check if that was still the plan.
