Thanks for the well wishes, JR.
After 2 false starts, I'm on my way again. I've held the flag waaaaay too long. But I've been kept busy waiting for the rain to let up. I've been building an ark.
I'm leaving shortly for a slab ride to the Twin Cities, where I'll stop at Moneypits' hacienda and then on to ND ,SD and NE to deliver the flag to goodfastncheap near Omaha Friday morning and then back home. It's about 1400 miles round trip. Will take pics and report back at the Mississippi River.
Adios amigos,
Tom

Long-haul award goes to you. And your new rain suit.

WAY to go!!!!!!!!! Ride Safe

Good luck Tom! Bridging a long gap there!

Ride safe!

I should have put the ark on trailer and brought it along. I ran into a gully washer only 200 miles from home. Heavy rain, high winds and a little hail. Holed up in a motel. Gonna be a long ride tomorrow.

Oh Man iron butt time :pinch:

Have a safe trip Tom, I would have liked to join you on that Mississippi river road to the TC, I dig river roads

TomW you should get a Medal for Service Above and Beyond the call of KZR relay riding! :woohoo:
I hope non of those twisters are heading towards you. :sick: Looks real bad at the moment through the mid west.
Be safe above all else, Then have fun also.
