Ride to Las Vegas...recommended?

[gm2]

I rode up from LA through Vegas on my way to Miller Motorsports park for the SBK\ WSBK races. It was in June and I thought that was hot. Then I went up to Yosemite a few weeks ago (the 395 admittedly). I was pulling over every 75 miles just for water. Drinking gallons of it and not peeing. It was 120. My buddy who is an old crusty bastard on a big ole Soft Tail just went through Vegas on his way to Sturgis. He said it was the hottest he'd ever been. Doing it is bad, but in August it's just plain nasty. Worse, it's a really boring ride. And then being in Vegas and knowing you have to come back? No thanks. The Greek place in Baker has good Bakalava though - makes for a nice pit stop.

Personally I'd rent a limo, get the girlfriend and one of her hotter friends, liberal doses of Tequilla and create my own travelling Penthouse Forum moment. Jesus man, you're going to Vegas!

  

better lock this thread.  there's nothing else to say.

Is your bike water cooled?
LEO factor is high.
Camelback, suspension adjustment, tunes, all a good idea.
Screw the "friends" of the gf.
Just rode through there on the way to and from Colorado on the BMW w/large windscreen. It is a blast furnace.
Good luck with what-ever decision you make.

it's the liquid cooled 05 s4r.  i'm going to my buddy for an idle adjustment and tune up, i guess i should have him setup the suspension for me while i'm there (the ride is way too stiff).   i think i'm going to do it just to say i did it.

Get yourself a sneaky leaker.

Another option is the "Sneaky Leaker" (www.sneakyleaker.com) for sale in many local shops. It's a device (one for guys and one for girls) that allows you to urinate down through a tube which can stick out of the bottom of your pants. You can stand in the middle of the street having a conversation with people, and no one will have the slightest clue that you are taking a leak! It may sound pretty disgusting, but come to New Orleans for Mardi Gras and you'll quickly understand why people have resorted to this.

at least you aren't doing it in August.




seriously.. just for the record, this idea borders on dangerous.  hope all goes well.

   Dude, you're farking nuts...I can think of a lot cooler things to do (pun intended), just to say I did it, like having a threesome, farting in church,  drinking 3 40oz's before work, driving 'not ' hands free, etc...best of luck.
