Zig and I are hitting the road first thing tomorrow morning. Looking at about 8 hours on the highways before we pull into our hostess' driveway tomorrow afternoon. A few friends are meeting up with us and we'll utilize some frosties to clear the road dust from our throats.
Saturday will be spent doing some sight-seeing and checking out the Vietnam Wall. This will be my 4th trip to The Wall and every time, I'm overwhelmed by the magnitude of emotions that it evokes.
Sunday will be Rolling Thunder; staging in the Pentagon parking lot in the morning. Black balloons rising towards the skies at noontime will signal the run's commencement, and our turn to roll out will eventually arrive. We'll make a few turns, do some accordian-ing as the pack tightens and loosens, wave to the throngs of bystanders, and try to get some pics taken. After we've had our fill, we're breaking off and heading to a BBQ (not sure what kind of a BBQ involves a hot tub, but we've been told that a hot tub is definitely involved).
Monday will be the long ride back home. Weather looks to be quite cooperative for the whole weekend, though; sunny and mid 70's (Where was that stuff this past weekend? I know 10 bikers that would have loved to have had some of that! Hopefully you guys have all warmed back up by now...)
Here's wishing everyone a great long weekend. Now get out there and ride!
