Default Re: Holiday 2011..... where are we all headed for ...?

Ireland in May on the road bike, Portugal in August on the off-road bike, off-road weekend in Wales when Specialone gets off his rrsss and sorts it out, Glencoe Massacre in Scotland, Spa weekend with the wife for her birthday, a couple of weeks beach holiday somewhere hot when the wife decides where we are going, and probably a couple of trips to France to see the in-laws.

Last summer I went to Miami for 2 weeks, Grenada in the Carribean for 3 weeks, and LA/San Diego/San Fran and Vegas for 7 weeks. Was the time of my life and gonna do the same again hopefully,but sadly only have 4 weeks this time.

Awesome place! I literally stayed on South Beach for 2 weeks and did ZERO sight seeing, just went out every night! You'll love the place, and I would tell you the women there are the best Ive ever seen, but you're a gal so never mind (unless..)...lol

We hired a car too LA (those goons love their automatics). From there we drove down to Diego, north to San Fran on the west coast highway (wish I did that with a bike beautiful road) and back down south east to Vegas. Just don't get caught speeding. I did 95mph in a 65mph massive freeway that should be an autobahn and got fined $475 by a sheriff driving down from the other side of the freeway who turned around.

Alcatraz was an absolutely amazing tour. San Francisco is hands down best place in America in my opinion!
Rent a bicycle from down town Fran, cycle round up to the Golden Gate to the other side to get to a beautiful little town called Sausalito. Get some nice sea food dinner there and grab an evening ferry back to the bay harbour, cycle back to your hotel cos the bikes yours for 24hours! It's a 15mile cycle round to the little town but well worth it,best thing I did as well as alcatraz. And the nights are awesome obviously.

I'd give anything to live in San Fran.

Also find a shooting range and get behind an M16 or even heavier artillery and enjoy!
