One small correction to your map; the flag went from Leesburg, VA to Harpers Ferry, WV, through MD to Littlestown, PA, to Rockville, MD, then through Delaware to NJ. (see red line). Ed

I know the map is very wrong :whistle:

just trying to get a ruff idea on how many miles the flag has traveled and too tired to put much effort in to it, sorry :blush:
Ruffly 4700 miles so far.

I think I went Key West to Maine, then to North Bay and on to Kalamazoo ,Cincinnati then New Orleans
And some how skipped Houston, sorry Bill
and ended in Dallas early :blush:

I would like to do a more accurate map .
Maybe I'll start a thread that riders can post their route while carrying the flag, yes ?

I just picked up the flag from WABBMW (Bill Baker) and jtmcculloch (Jim) at the The Progressive International Motorcycle Show in Dallas TX. I left at 7:30am and got there around noon. Bill and Jim had a more eventful trip but arrived safe around 4 pm. Greg (Arai59) came to the show and we got a chance to meet him, a nice guy. We had our pictures taken with the flag and then I had to get started for home. I left at 4:30 and with a fast 25-30 mph tailwind I was able to comfortably cruise the 650 at 80-90 all the way home, taking only 4 hours and two gas stops.

The ride was great both ways for me, I rode 452 miles round trip. The weather began cloudy and 60's, but got up to 80 and sunny in the late afternoon. No rain at all on Saturday, but Bill and Jim may get some on Sunday when they ride back to Houston.

All in all, a beautiful fall day, lots of riding, saw some great bikes at the show, and got to meet great people from KZRider. The next hand-off is to 531blackbanshee (Leon) from the Tulsa area, sometime very soon.
