All I can say is that you are going to be one busy person. I don't know how you are going to be able to see all of these people in two weeks!! But if you ever make it to CA, drop in. I've got 7 Yorkies now, not counting puppies!! They'll keep you busy!!!

Well Frister, you know when you come to Krum we can get ahold of TX YTers and plan us a meet up 'cause I know everyone here wants to meet Cindy. I am so excited. Barbi even said y'all could have her bedroom for the night or the extra bedroom at Brad's house or even your own private camper. I can't wait so tell Ron to hurry up:D Patty

Thank you

That's some road trip you and your DH are planning. Drive safely and if
you make it to the east coast, NY, come on by. Breakfast, lunch or
dinner is on me. Just send me a pm.

Be safe.

I think ARCHIE's mom and I both live in Rockland County, NY - So, you have 2 people at the same time..

PM me if you are going to be near Chicago!!!

PuppyLovinNurse 07-18-2007 11:27 AM

You DEFINITELY have to come visit Chloe & I. We'd love to meet you!!!

We're in Cornwall, ON (right on the border of Massena, NY) We're smack-dab between Montreal & Ottawa (the country's capital, of course). We could take a day trip to both places.

Oooh it would be SO fun!!! We can hit all the ritzy doggie boutiques & I'd love to buy you a Tim Horton's coffee!

I grew up in NC & miss the South so bad! You could bring the South to me ;) :cool:

My semester starts Sept. 5th so come before then!!! ;)

stephluvsangel6 07-18-2007 02:54 PM

kjk723 07-18-2007 03:02 PM

There are quite a few of us in or near Pittsburgh!!!!! So if it is on your route, maybe a couple of us could meet up with you!!!

More of a LifeStyle
 
I think our quest will become more of a lifestyle.... Once we get the bike and get it all checked out -- Ron wants an excuse to ride and I need a reason. What better excuse could Ron have than to rive a couple 100 miles to haul me to meet a fellow YTer. And what better reason would I have to get on the back of a bike and ride????

Maybe we can start a biker group.

the "Yorkie Talkin' Bikers" LOL

I am game!! (just let us get a bike and then hubby gets bike license and we are good as gold!)

Kathryn_V 07-18-2007 10:19 PM

Well if you make it out to California, I EXPECT to see you at my doorstep! I'll make you whatever meal fits the time of day you show up and put you all up for the night! Heck, I want more than a cup of coffee out of you! lol And I'd LOVE to meet that amazing hubby of yours!

Praying that he finds the bike of his dreams and rides it safely home to you! ;)

LOL. I can just hear people: "Those Yorkies are cute, but, damn, those Yorkie owners are bad-asses!"

I am so jealous of you. Listen, my understanding is that the Alaska Highway is paved all the way through. Yes, there may be some road construction, but only for small stretches. I say you head North and don't stop until you have a cocktail with Santa. Or me.

JillandJack 07-18-2007 11:35 PM

Georgia to Wisconsin

Ohhhh Cindy! We live 30 minutes from the birth place of Harley Davidson. We have 6 dealerships within a 40 mile radius. Lots of bikes for sale up here. Labor Day, 2008 they are planning HD 105th birthday party and the opening of the HD Museum. That will be a party! And we ride!!! Hubby has an Ultra Classic Cop Bike. I sold mine two years ago but did ride for 3 years. We have ridden all over the country. So if you are headed to the Midwest just drive on up to Wisconsin and we can hook up. We'll fix you some brats and beer. There is a ferry that crosses Lake Michigan so you could then visit all your friends in Michigan. Count me in on YT Biker Group!

Here is a pic of my :aimeeyork :aimeeyork :aimeeyork decked out in there Harley vests visiting a HD Dealership on Pet Day. They were quite the attraction that day.

I need to know the name of the road. It is a life-dream of mine to drive to Alaska.... What better way to see the scenery.... Where there are paved roads, Ron will go

Come on down, would love to meet you. The coffee pot is always on at my house. If you coming I-20 to Texas, it comes through my city. We have a Harley Store here too.

Willow 07-19-2007 05:46 AM

Really truly, when we get the bike and I am comfortable riding -- I have only been on a motorcycle once in my life and I was TERRIFIED! It was a Honda Goldwing!. Anywaywe are going to take a few short day trips so I can get over motorcycle fear and then we are going to HIT THE ROAD. We will go whereever there is a YT member who wants to share a cup of coffee and a hug. :)

I need to edit that to say we will go where ever there is a PAVED road and a YT member who wants to share a cup of coffee and a hug. Ron said no dirt roads with his Harley :D


Hey Cindy,
We have paved roads, lots of lights, sunshine, hot coffee and hubby has a Harley, too! :thumbup:

GREAT, maybe we can meet somewhere and ride for a while....

Judy in Waco 07-19-2007 07:06 AM

We're thinking about your husband today. Did he find a bike in Florida? Praying for a safe trip home, and hope he has a lot of fun on the way. :)

Hmmm...we have a friend who last year, started out on his Harley in Key West and drove all the way thru to Alaska...he was like 300 miles from the northern most tip of the state and hit a pothole filled in with gravel...totaled his bike and caught a plane home...so watch out for potholes in Alaska! :eek:

JillandJack 07-19-2007 09:21 AM

Wisconsin to Nevada

We just may be heading you way in October. Hubby's club is having a rally somewhere in Nev. He is riding out and I will be flying to meet him. I want to get him to Vegas (I've already been there) just to ride down the strip. We love stopping at dealerships where ever we travel. Let me know where it is.
Your little baby is a little cutie!

Pet Day was in April. Lots of HD owners brought there pets for a fun day of dog washes, pictures, giveaways and friendship. Met lots of great people that day who have the same love for their bikes and furbabies. Some showed up on their bikes with their furkids in tow either in a pet carrier strapped on or inside their jackets or backpacks.

I think the 'big' one is in Henderson, then there's one on Eastern and they just built a really nice one on Sahara Blvd (closer to my side of town). I'll get you the exact addresses if you'd like. :)
