(start small...shoot small, or was that Aim small shoot...OH, that's the movie.) I would be interested in how many would come form back East all the Way to the West. Maybe that is why Colarado is so Popular...the middle road for those who don't want to drive their Crossfires's too many miles, and for those who just don't want to drive for day's...and day's....and day's. Going from Ohio to Tennesse is a piece of cake compared going from Montana to Utah. The west is so spread out, but the freeways are that "a Need for Speed" roads. Tahoe is really more fun than Reno, if you wanted to know...also more curves for the Crossfires. One of these years I will be going to the Dragon with you guys, when i have time from work. Rebecca and i have already discussed that. Just wnat ot meet some of my CICCI friends and Crossfire owners. You are all wecome to join us in May if you want for our Yakima, WA Wine tour. (mmmm taste the Wine,)

As a base for driving, we would want to be on the outskirts of Tahoe or in Reno so that we could avoid the traffic around the lake. Especially once the weather gets nice. You can get bottenecked way too many places and be stuck for hours. (I know from many many many times of experience. There are no real alternate route when you are around the lake as well. Heck for the best driving roads the best place to start out would actually be Carson City, NV or Virgina City NV. Both very very close (30-45min away.) They have great access to some great driving in all directions.
