12(ish) years for me too

Yeah I'm actually sitting at 11 years till my retirement (20) but I'll probably stick around for another year to get my things in final order (sell my house and what not) and hell if you're still game... I'll wait for you...


first thing I want to do is head north to Prudeho (even though I hope to ride there long before this) and ride to Argentina for Xmas

Prudho for summer solstice and emander my way south to Ushuia for the winter solstice, xmas, and new years, then off to Africa for cheap hookers. I'm gonna call my trip "long way to shitsville"

This summer will be 12 years for me. I'll get out with 25 years, and both kids out of high school.

cool... yeah.. sounds like a plan... I wanna ride north through Africa up the western coast if possible... depending on the political mess at the time... then east through europe and into Russia and Mongolia and Syberia. eventually wanna make it down into India and see the Himalayan mountains

Those guys take some unbelievable trips. Aside from Striking Viking you really never hear of anyone having any problems either...

Can't wait for June

one guy... colbech or something. had his bike stolen mid trip in NE... found less than 24hrs later BECAUSE of the forum.. some dutch riders started looking for it and had it back in his possession in a week (had to do forensic work... it was a petty theft ring)
