That's hilarious, here's a pic of my fridge just now, that's my regular too. I just said the Beast because after the cost of an expedition of this magnitude, that's going to be our budget, lol.

Bring some with you this weekend.

Very true but I'm hoping a few will be at the finish line when you all bust through the tape!

That's my plan! Part of the welcome to Idaho team.

I do know that and if anyone can get er done it's you but now I'm overly thinking about it. I just want you all to stay safe it's no joke the miles especially at 50 on a sxs. Monumental really. I'm so excited and wish it were this summer but I will be at least making part of the trip with you all. We need to get the route in play asap so I can start planning on where to cut in and get this side ready. I'm hopeful people from the northwest will make this trip also. There are a lot of Pioneers within 500 of us and this may shape up to be huge.

Agreed. How far are you wanting to ride along? 20, 50, 100 miles? I got nothing but time right now to plan a route. 94 is shut down and I'm stuck at a truck stop in Bismarck.

Why couldn't you? You got over a year to plan.

I work for the state my wife works for the city and i have 3 kids! It takes me a year to plan a day trip! much less a trip to get to the starting point from south Georgia and then the 2000+ miles of the ride. Like i said wish i could go. I'll keep playing lotto...

@Montecresto which machine are you going to take?

I'm taking the P7 and hoping that someone else takes the P5. I don't want to be the caboose on mopar's train! You know the car right behind the engine, yeah, that one. No wait, not the coal car, the next one, the dining/lounge car with the white table cloths having whatever I like and shouting encouragements to the P5.

 

[moparornocar]

All good points, but I think the word limited is in the op title, lol.

I don't mind some folks riding along for sections here and there. I just don't want to be responsible for explaining a 20 machine deep road train through half a dozen states. There gets to be a point where it's too much to keep organized. If 100 of you wanna join in for the last 30 or 40 miles, that sounds badass.

And I can already hear it T, "what about the no mods part Monte"!!!!!!!

I am already getting antsy. May have to do a partial trial run this summer

I'm hoping at least Idaho border. If you run high or low through Montana is the depending factor. Not sure if low is clear for sxs. I suspect you're coming through Clark Fork and if so that's about 65 out but can no cement from there on

Oh no, that was just a big joke that got me poked in the ribs by y'all. I was trying to forget about that lol.

One high school here is named that for that reason. It sure took them longer to get here though. They didn't have hondas.
