I like your ideas Bob & Joe. Man, if somebody comes all the way from another continent just to be with all us Hooligans, they should automatically get an award. And, even though I'm not likely to be the one, I think the person who rides (the GTS of course) the farthest should get an award also. Nothing expensive or classy....maybe a framed picture of them with the local police force expressing their opinion on his ride. Of course time (duration) would also have to be factored in, just so that the semi-retired types out there don't take an extended holiday just before the rally.
Cheers GWN Daren PS. How's this for a LD ride. Some of the guys I ride with each spring to Hyder, Alaska are talking about putting on a ride from Hyder, Arizona to Hyder, Alaska. 2500 miles in 2-2.5 days. I know this isn't much for John, but it's a sizeable feat just the same. Quoting "Loss, Joe" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > I'm sure we can knock up some kind of trophy.
