Right now, I'm packing for DIMBY, putting new shoes on the Miata, and thinking of other little things to make sure the car doesn't eat itself when I set out tomorrow morning.

Holy make the beast with two backsballs I'm excited! [laugh]
Any chance at meeting up with our currently 2 car caravan. It would be fun to have the Mazdas tease Travis's "sports" car.

That would be great. I'm leaving tomorrow morning and planning on driving for quite a spell. Where will y'all be located?

Ha, I could pass you, run ahead, find some back road to turn down, circle back around and pass you again. Could do that the whole trip over.  ;D

Seriously, what's your timing look like? We intend on basically just doing the reverse of how we rode back last year. Yes, that means Rt 30.  [thumbsup]

That's roughly 15 hours from me, including losing an hour to going into Eastern time.
It'll be hell to do, but I'll try as best I can. Can I get a PM with someone's cell number to text with progress?

We're going to try to leave here at 7 (which means between 7 and 8

I don't think we'd be out your way till more like lunch time.  No way to make 10 unless we leave at 5.

Im not getting up in time to leave at five.

yeah,...when i came over for the original DIMBY, the rain was intense..

this time i have rain gear.

Oooh... That was a good time. [thumbsup] I think my stuff was all dry by the time I got home. Mostly.

I never thought that waterproofing my jacket the week before would be so helpful for keeping water IN. Stupid bicep vents...

I can't wait until Marquez gets on his level and makes Jorge trip on his tampon string.
