Out to Cali

[Trip]

Yeah it will be pricy but you only live once. camping is an option to save cash. this is my only chance like this before me and my wife have kids.

What kind of miles you looking at? Fig that and divide by bike's mpg times $3.25 (min) per gal of gas.

Even cheap lodging... fig $100 a night divided by 2 if you room up.

Food is $75 a day = $1275

I think you're figuring a bit high per night on hotels. We don't need a Hampton, fucking budget motel works just fine. Get a first floor room and roll the bikes inside. I laugh, but I'm serious.

Agreed. It's going to be difficult being away from my daughter for that long, but I'm hoping to talk her mom into taking her vacation with her parents at that time next year. They always take a vacay down to Florida or Tennesse for about 10 days in June or July. If they take it in early June, it would work out great.

I didn't plan on it either, but sometimes it happens when you don't expect it. However, I want to do a trip like this before getting married (no, I don't have plans for that just yet, but things are going well with the g/f.)
