Hmmm... I won't be riding but I'll be camping I think!

Does it matter where? LOL If I had my choice, it'd be a ride down to Klamath Falls through Diamond Lake, zig zagging on all the back roads, then over to Myrtle Point and on up through back roads back to Eugene.

whoa, talk about one hell of a round trip! I dunno if I'll have funding for that kind of a ride, but maybe! I'll let ya know later in the week.

Funding?!? That's less than $50 in gas, a shared motel room (probably less than $25 each), and some food (oh - I eat CHEAP when on trips). That whole trip would cost me less than $100 if I go.

yeah...full time college student, part time worker, no roommates...money ear-marked for drag-racing, and tryin to save for a new front tire for the bike...living on top ramen only takes ya so far! ;) Plus all my bills are due this thurs/fri, which is gonna leave its mark on the budget. :( Might be able to pull it off tho... will know when the dust settles later in the week.

Hmmm... my plans may be changing and I might be available... no promises. Camping is easier on the budget... or are you one of those riders who can't live without TV at night? :laughing:

TV? Uh, no. It's extremely rare that I watch TV away from home. I just prefer to travel light - which means sans tent and other such gear. My packing list for an overnight trip: Socks, underwear, and maybe a t-shirt if I can get it in the trunk along with the tools & water bottle.

Well, bad news. I'm apparently on call this weekend (my mistake), and can't get out of it. That means no overnight trip for me. :sad: :censored:
