My Thanks to "Bob" Fuel Crew Leader (CR) and the rest of the CR Fuel Crew + all the Riders I came into contact with - It was a great ride.

After the Run - I picked up the wife (visiting new Grand daughter in MA) at the Baltimore Airport - We started our ride back to CA with a Twist - vist as many NP's along the way in a quest for the Iron Butt National Parks Patch - we made our goal buy collecting park stamp south to SC over the "Tail of the Dragon" back up to NY by way of PA - Flight 93 Memorial (a must see) then around the Great Lakes switching back and forth collecting and visiting NP's along the way
Total 8627 miles in 26 days -
 
What was really interesting - last year we came back to CA by way of going south along the Eastern seaboard down to FL and I-10 back to CA - We about Melted from the heat.
 
This year - Very COOL most of the way home - just beat one HUGE storm and Hail in WY - LOL> close doesn't count right...
 
Again, Thanks to everyone for making this another Great ride with RFTW....\
 
btw - Our Aussie friends are in my prayers every day.....
