You can alway pre-prepare the trip like I am, well at least thinking about it. I am thinking about moving back to Porltand, that'd be a helluva lot easier to make the event, lol.
Honestly, with a dual vacation I don't see it working out too well (for you). At the cost of shipping back and forth, why not take the extra week for the drive/up down from work? Easier said than done, but something to think about. |

Life's been good to me so far..... Group: Admin Posts: 15,474 Joined: 11-September 03 From: Hurst, TX. Member No.: 1,143 Region Association: NineFourteenerVille |
Lets see...
According to mapquest... 20 hours from Hurst, TX to Los Angeles. Another 15 hours from Los Angeles to Portland Or. That's a little more than 4 days driving. Plus layover time in Phoneix, LA and SF. Direct is 31 hours, via Kansas and Boise. For 4 hours difference, I would go via LA and hook up with the caravan coming out of there. I am currently thinking about it.. but I am not sure at this time. |

What are you a tourist, 4 DAYS???? We did Murphy to LA and back to Murphy about 2900 miles in 2 and a half days (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/driving.gif) and that was stopping at an AX in Riverside and Dad will not eat in the car so we had to stop for that (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/mad.gif) |

Joe, Have you figured out how to stack 914's in your trailer yet? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) Don't forget to hook up with the SF Bay Area caravan... (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/cool.gif) |

I was really planning to fly up and rent a car, but it sounds like the caravan could become a main part of the event. IronButt run?

I would like to sugest a day on the Redwood Highway. I would take a day to get there and another to get to Portland. I have driven Party Centrial from Tacoma to LA in 18 hrs. But some of us will be in 30 year old cars.

I'd like to see the caravan take it's time if possible. As Joe Sharp just said, some of us will be in 30 year old cars, and even older butts. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

If we're going to do the deal.........
The best way would be for you to drive it up to Ernie's in Flagstaff, let me take it on our trailer from there to Portland, and then return it to ABQ after the WCC so I can do the work. You can pick it up in Aug. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ph34r.gif) |

Still, twice of nothing is ... ? I'd love to do the caravan this year. Maybe we'd let Neverland lead the caravan... Besides, we don't want to lose eye-contact with our alcohol stash... |

i saw a guy driving a huge motorhome a while back. he had 2 cars stacked on a double-deck flat trailer, (maybe it was custom made, i don't know). then he had luggage on top of that.
if you had a friend that you got along with pretty well, i think both w/spouse+ could share something like that. advantage: comfort/convenience beat the hell out of a rented motorhome drive non-stop no hotel bills cook at "home" disadvantage: co$t sharing living space risk ...
