Im not a complete idiot...there are pieces missing.
To all,i'm wanting to know who/when the shufflers are heading back west? I've read that some are shipping their buggies and flying back but was wondering who is driving back.
My wife and i are looking for somebody to buddie-up /tag along with for the return trip to the st.louis area?Would rather not drive solo.

Tony, we are planning on going to Philadelphia for a few days after MOTF. If you want to go with us, that would be cool. We are planning on leaving Philadelphia on Tuesday, stopping in Columbus Tuesday night and then back to St Louis the next day. LMK if that sounds like a plan to you!

Tim…
Let me know if you need anything in the Philly area before or while your here.
Dave, thanks for the offer! A recommendation for lodging would be appreciated! We are planning on going to the Impressionist exhibit at the art museum and the touristy stuff (I dependence hall, the Liberty Bell, running the steps from Rocky, etc). A great place for a Philly cheesessteak would be awesome too!

Tony there are 2 buggies heading as far Cincinnati on Sunday 28th, each one have plans to visit family in the area. The Bob and Dianne Baumgartner and Mark & Lemon Tebbe with their daughters. There are some will be connecting with the ECVW parade, while Myself, Scott Drolet will be shipping/flying back. There are still a few more that have not made their plans known.

Thanks Mike.
The longest 'run' in our buggy to date is about 50 miles non-stop.I know i'll need to make several shake down runs before we depart, it only has 1400 miles on the odometer,new/rebuild 1835. It has been problem free so far but again at 1400 miles i wouldn't expect many problems.(i'm waiting on murphys law).i did have a throw out bearing start to make noise with 500 miles on it?
I've gone over it pretty well i think, and fixed/upgraded most of the buggy.new electrical system,brake system,fuel system with the exception of the hard fuel line.haven't touched the transaxle other than fluid/boots...
Finally warm enough to ride,So we'll see what happens between now and the end of June.
Effingham will be a good shakedown, Tony. When are you planning on rolling up there? Barb and I will be going up Friday am. LMK if ya wanna roll with us!

Tony, we've all gone through those nerves prior to our first long distance trip. Cross the t's and dot the i's and go for it! They're be plenty of support. You're buggy will be fine, you'll have a blast.
