I think it ends up as: "you can't serve all the members all the time, but you can serve some of the members some of the time."
Or something like that.

Move it around enough, and everybody will get a chance at some point. It also makes it a lot more interesting.
That's the beauty of our coaches: they're mobile.

Karen,

While the idea is good, we have two personal issues.

Only one is that Tucson will be 4 road days as a Bonzi run (no stops for sights at all - fuel and short sleep only and with two drivers.) It is still 5 road days as a hard run and 7 road days as a casual run. It is over 2000 miles. That means two bogie grease stops just to get there.

I had hoped to use this as a lead in to a Pacific Coast Highway tour all the way to Washington. And when in Washington and Idaho there were hopes and plans to shoot two national matches. Now I have a much bigger problem. Most of the PCH is in California. California now prohibits the possession of magazines that can hold more than five cartridges. Those cannot be limited by plugs that can be removed. The long gun I would carry is specifically disallowed because it could be an "assault weapon" (whatever that means today). I would also want to carry several hundred rounds of match grade ammunition and this would require a California arsenal license. The magazines for the match pieces are about 1.5 GMCbucks EACH as they have been smithed to eliminate mis-feeds and not damage the projectile. You don't even want to hear the insured value of the match pieces. Suffice it to say that I cannot afford to loose them.

And, California has eliminated the "Peaceable Transit" language from the new laws.

This, coupled with the cost of a required crampsite along the coast. (One can get a crampsite for a semi-reasonable ~40$ when you get 30~50 miles inland.) Is a big enough deterrent to severely limit our chances of doing this tour. Free ONP is virually non-existent as elsewhere as many jurisdictions have eliminated it with local ordinances.

So much for California this life.

Matt
