Rally travel plans North crew

tommymac · 05-06-2009, 07:19 AM

I am working untill around 5 up in westchester so that will limit how much earlier I can get on the road. I will keep track of that cell throughout the day and see how its tracking, (nice having a do nothing job

) all I need to do when I get home is take a quick shower mount all the bags, check the tire pressures and can be on the road. Only problem would be fighting traffic out of the city, after 6 it should start to lighten up but you never know. I may see about getting out of here early too in case we need an early jump off.

looks like the storm is moving prety fast which is good. I guess it depends on how it tracks too. I was thinking that if it stays more inland we coul dtake 95 down to 85 and stay further east and avoid some of it, or if it moves east we take the planned route and just cut through part of it.

I am kind of in the mindset that I want to be on our way at midinight but will def wait a few hrs if it looks like we will have better weather. Plus I could get in a little nap before we go.

A nap? Who the fuck can sleep! We have a rally to attend!!!

I didn't sleep worth a damn last night and was up early full of energy.

I'm hoping work tires me out or I'm going to be bouncing off the walls tonight. My hyperness has kicked in overdrive!!!

I think if it werent for the rain and figuring out our travel plans I would be more excited. Now its jsut guarded optimism hoping we can leave on time and stick with our original plan but will have ot see how mother nature treats us here.

Sounds like one of my friends here. Me, I'm just laid back making it through a slow workday. I'll go to the gym tonight and burn any extra energy.

I have a few last minute things to do; get a haircut because I'll have the lid on forever and long hair bugs me, finish packing the saddlebags, and try to locate a digital camera I can live with. The bike's all ready to go- washed and waxed, chain checked cleaned and lubed, brakes bled, tires checked. No suspension upgrades unfortunately- still don't have my emulators. Very close to canceling the order and going somewhere else.

This rain seems to be tracking more to the north so that may bode well for me getting out of NY and down to meet sixxer. just not sure about that one strip of ugly looking rain thats still down by GA, not sure if we will get stuck in that and if so how bad will it be by later this evening/tomorrow morning.

Tom, the pattern has been it dying off by midnight or so lately so it may clear out ok for y'all by the time you're down this way.
