I think it would make for a great event. Riding the Cabot Trail is just plain spectacular, and it would be nice to do it with someone who really knows the area.
Sue and I are in, and I'm pretty certain that Michael and Shanna would be in as well.

Cindy and I would be up for it also.
She would need a set date ahead of time to get the needed time of of course.

I think Tim and myself need several days head start. If I don't get another bike well will be trailering.

I planned a trip out there a couple years ago when Cindy expressed an interest in going there someday.
2600 miles round trip, hell we went 5000 on our trip to Colorado. I had my Nomad and she had her 750 Honda Shadow.

I don't think I lost more than a couple of ounces of oil from that seal. When we got home I was a quart low . Its been using some oil before the rally. It has 74,+++ miles on it.

74,000 miles on a Nomad is not that much. I had 88,000 on my 07 and have 54,000 on my 08. You could buy my 08 I'm sure it would make the trip with no problem. Or maybe a nice Victory would be good

Carry some oil with you and Check it a few times during the trip. As for the seal, as Tim says glue it in. 3m 5200 is what I would use. It is a high performance sealant glue far superior to silicone sealant.

I'm sure we can figure out a date that works for all well in advance. I'll have to check my work schedule too.
