i forgot and thought this was OT my bad...

on a side note had anyone heard of touring with a SO over anytype of distance?

my girlie was talking about wanting to go with me cross the country at some point and that got me wondering if it was possible.
Dude, if you let her ruin our trip, I am going to find you and stab you.

Seriously, you need something like a 1200GS to even consider it, I would want a goldwing myself. All the extra luggage and shit you will need to be comfortable, I wouldn't attempt it on a small bike. I couldn't take the whining. If we do a 250+ mile local day, she is not in a good mood.

on our own bikes I would spend the rest of my life touring with my husband. I've never gone two-up so I can't speak to that...

Riding 2 up with my EX husband is why I have my own bike!

I just teasing you about the first one, but you definitely need something bigger than the buell to make it fun. I think something like that would be a blast with a big goldwing and someone who wouldn't mind weather and such.

I'd travel with Leon for sure.

Just with me riding my own bike.

I tell ya trip. I know with Uma at least. She likes riding around and maybe even a couple hours out. But nothing like the trips I like. She says it's just not her cup of tea. Sucks, I really wish it was.

Andrea is the same way, even if it was on a goldwing, I doubt she would enjoy it. Especially if we ran into bad weather.

She wants to do a cross country, but in a RV. We will probably fly out to Colorado one year and rent an RV to see the west.
