Do you enjoy road trips?
I know I sure do. Driving to Vegas today was so cool. The desert with the rain clouds over the mountains was so beautiful. I love being able to hit the road and enjoy the scenery of this great country.
|
I used to... then I wrecked my truck a few years back...
Maybe if I get another similar ride I really just enjoy driving that much again I'd get back into it. |
As long as its in a convertible and Baddog isnt around then yeah.
|
no I get so bored sitting in a car for hours :(
|
I loved Road Trips when I was in college.
I really haven't done that many since then. |

Did you ever live here before or were you always on the east? If you haven't checked out your new home, you are missing it. |
YES!!!
:thumbsup:thumbsup:thumbsup its the best thing ever :) |
i go from vegas to barstow on my bike quite often...
|
I don't like sitting in a car for hours... so no
|
If I am the only one driving, no not really but I will get the trip done in one shot typically.
Though I do love drives that are not really destination trips. |

I lived in the DC Metro Area for almost all of my life. My first job out of college was in sales in Vegas from 1993-1995. We used to go on some pretty crazy road trips when I was in college living in my fraternity house. We went to Marid Gras a couple times, drove to Fort Lauderdale, Datyona Beach and Panama City for Spring Break. We would go to Myrtle Beach every year when school ended. But the most fucked up road trips we had were when we would go down 81 and stay with our fraternity brothers at Va Tech and Radford. When you say road trip I still envision 5 guys packed in car, raising hell on their way to an adventure. |
I will always remember riding my bike from Albuquerque to Flagstaff. Going thru the dry nothingness of the petrified forest you could actually smell and feel the vegetation as you approached Flagstaff. Really cool.
|
Road trips where I can take my time, stop and poke around in little shops in little towns frozen in time, are the best. Although there isn't much of it left, I would love to do a Route 66 trip.
|
I love it, specially when it´s around montains area.
|
We took a road trip last fall with a group of Mini owners to Watkin's Glen. Once there we got to take the cars on the track for a few laps. Had a blast. That was the last one I went on.
I did enjoy the movie. http://www.carbonpoker.com/blog/uplo...rip-730550.jpg |
I love it. I got a trip up to the bay area in the next few months I'm stoked for. Even just driving somewhere just to drive there is a good time. Just roll down the windows and turn up the stereo. It's good for the soul.
|
road trips are always a blast! Just depends on the people driving with you..
|
Love 'em, since they (road trips) typically mean I am leaving the city---city life sucks---and heading for the mountains to ski or climb!
|
I enjoy when I drive .. driving fast is fun.
|
I LOVE roadtrips :) Just came back from FL last week. I swear I'm going to make a coffee table book called "What People Haul in Trucks". There are some VERY strange things in the back of trucks (and in the front........).
|
hell yeah. i have a lotta driving just to get outta fl though. someday i wanna go to the airport without a plan on where i am going and book a flight once i get there and just go for it
|
i drove from fl to vegas for internext in an rv. ill never do it again.
|
I love it, but with some friends that are down to have some fun.
|
I have taken hard ass rides on my steal pony from Boston to Tijuana for Chinese food and from Boston to Seattle (Space Needle) for a cup of coffee. All and all, I have taken some type of trip to 45 states and 3 countries via bike. A lot of bugs in the teeth and bee stings. Thanks for bringing back a lot of good memories.
Kind Regards, Les |
I am addicted to road trips. It's my true escape. I sing like a rock star when the windows are rolled up, lol. Until this next Sunday, I will never have flown to get somewhere.
|
who doesnt?
you havenyt lived until youve driven back and forth from one end of US to the other a few times with no particular place to go. I read jack kerouacs ON THE ROAD when I was young and it blew my mind, now the road is always there as an option when there is no other |
Yep. I'll often go the longer, scenic route if it's an option.
|
I remember one road trip to Vegas was an absolute nightmare. Was going to get married so that was stressful enough and of course we got lost and that set us back over 2 hours.
But yeah other then that it's nice to check out the scenery to different places. We've driven up to Sedona a few times and that is my favorite ride. It's so beautiful and the red mountains are always cool to look at. :) |
Yeah. My last trip was from San Diego to Brownsville Tx. Just me and my dog. From there, picked up the family and drove to Cancun.
|
I love em
We are getting ready to leave Toronto this week for Key West! Spring Break 2008! |
I drove from LA to NY taking a northern route and from NY to San Diego taking a southern route. I also drove another time from LA to NY when I moved there. I have been on tour and done the US at least 7 times on a tour bus. That is not nearly as much fun because it is go go go and you actually live on the bus quite a bit. The upside though is that I have seen more of the US than most and some parts are quite beautiful.
|
I truly love road trips :)
|
road trips are cool :)
|
Baddog, it was that road trip to Internext Vegas 3 years ago that you took me on that started my career in Online!!! And every time I see the SouthPark episode where Cartman gets the alien satellite up his butt I think of you. LOL
|
I love roadtrips.
Just me and the bike and a nice windy road with no cars = HEAVEN |
As soon as I'm down a couple of dogs (I know that sounds awful, but it's true), I'm seriously looking into getting a B+ or C class RV and hitting the road for about a year. If I could find someone to rent out my house during that time, that would be PERFECT :)
The only time I semi-regretted a road trip was driving straight to the Outer Banks from here by myself and with 2 dogs. It's a 12 hour drive and I really couldn't stop for any long period of time (bathroom breaks were about it) with the dogs in the car and I couldn't eat because I'd end up trying to eat and fight off two attack pugs at the same time. The worst part was once I got there, I realized I had to drive back home ;) Thankfully I stayed there for 2 weeks so I had time to recoup at the beach :) I truly would rather drive by myself - having someone there distracts from my "heavy thinking" time. |
:thumbsup:thumbsup

roadtrips can be alot of fun.

I drive 3 hours a day to work round trip so road trips have somewhat lost their luster. But I still enjoy them and love to get around. I have a new car with nav so it would be cool to see new places and find anything in the surrounding area ;]
|
Road trips rock

I don't know though as a teenager and early 20's i loved to get out and drive but now i just wanna get on a plane and fly. |
I love road trips. Use to love it when we were in South Africa and my dad use to take us on road trips to Durban and Cape Town and especially the Drakensburg Mountains. I still love either riding my bike in the forest over here in the UK in the summer or taking the car and just seeing new places even though Uk is a lot smaller :)

I dig a good road trip. A enjoy going from sd to phx or tucson. Just kinda nothing. I just get a couple new CDs or at times I just drive with no radio or CDs at all. Just sit maybe for an hour and think while I cruise.
