A to Z Ride Challenge?

In a few weeks the Southern Cruisers (Ms Chapter) will have an A to Z challenge. Some other states in the SC also are participating. Sounds like a lot of fun. My friend (on the Harley, hope he doesn't break down somewhere along the way), and I are going to work together. We are given a list of over 200 acceptable cities in Ms to drive to. We have to get pics of us or out bikes in front of the citie's signs. And then e-mail them to the chapter president. There's no time limit so we'll probably do it in a couple of weekends, covering the southern part of the state one saturday and the northern part the following saturday. Every letter (except Q or Z) will have to be represented by a city. We'll just map out a route both days. Anyone else ever participated in something similar to this? Jamie

I heard of one the goldwing riders have done. In Arkansas we have 75 counties, you have to have your picture taken in front of the courthouse at the county seat. It takes a lot of time and miles to get this done, but sounds like a lot of fun.

We have 15 counties in AZ, and a few of them are larger than some states. It would take a lot of riding to do something like that here. Due to the terrain, the state isn't criss-crossed by highways like a lot of the midwestern and eastern states.
