Back in California there is no easy way to say it, the trip is ending tomorrow when we return the RV back. We did 20,000 Kilometers from the west-coast to the east-coast and back and now we're back "home" in Cali. soon we'll sell the bikes, from there it's a short trip to JFK and to Israel.
Miller Motorsport in Utah was our last track for this trip. We did almost 3 full day's with 2 different groups. one of them was NESBA, we meet Tom, the track-manger, while he was walking his crazy dog, Max, after the track day was over. We sit down talked some politics and got us 2 free sessions for the day after, Thanks for politics and even more for Tom :)
Yellowstone THE BEST, BEST, national park that we saw. it had everything we could ask for, wild-life, geysers, big lakes and water-falls. and it have a "grand" canyon of it's own. WoW! it's pretty. you'll have to excuse Gal for not smiling, he injured his leg when he crushed in VIR raceway. but Gal kept on walking with us all the way, that is a man.
Devil's Tower is a unique geological phenomenon that rises 385 Meter height. we did the unbelievable and woke up at 05:30 to observe the tower at sunrise. altough the towers amazing view, the star of the day was Mr.Chipmunks. He was so fast, we were left with our mouths wide open "like a Bangkok hooker after the navy had left town".
NEW YORK CITY BABE! it's all what we hoped it to be, big, messy and stinky. Time Square at night is beautiful with all the light, and if you're lucky not to get run over by a taxi, the pedestrian will finish the job. We had Katya, a friend from Israel "the Mishkan" to show us around. The "highlight" of NYC was the hummus restaurant we eat in. we paid $100 for five people, usually it coast in Israel about $25... also we had a chance to "hit" on the waitress, our RVs Charm didn't do the trick for her ;)

Katya aka Kaja you're the B.E.S.T, you were so good to us, and you tolerated us so happily. I know for a fact most people would deny any relation with us after so much bullshit we did in NYC. We give you the trip medal of the best tour guide. come back home to Israel, NYC have alot but not Ice-berg |

Camp Monroe with the Lady's in Pennsylvania, close to NY, we met Nicole, a.k.a "Pitz" and lovely Margarita. we brought the girls to the camp to start the feast. it is still unclear to this day, how come the police didn't come to arrest us. after all we woke up all of the camp plus near by wildlife. In the morning Idan woke up very early to do some off road mayhem with the YZ.
Mid-Ohio Raceway we came to ride Mid-Ohio Raceway Wow that was so much fun. this track is one of the best. fast and technical just what we wanted. the team we're riding with STT are the best, profissonal and rides the best tracks.

Jessica In Mid-Ohio raceway, we met a very special lady named Jessica, she's a professional rider, racing in the AMA championship, not only she is a racer but also a snowboard junky. this girl kicks ass. we loved her, and wish her many podium finishes. |

Virginia Raceway we came especial to Virginia to ride Virginia Raceway, we heard good things about it, they were so true. it had the best kink, 150mph and then hairpin right, very fun very technical ;) compare to Barber, it was more hard to learn but after that the fun and speed comes in a high volume. Gal had a slow low-side in the first session and went off track. but nothing can stop this guy, two sessions later, the green ninja was back on track but a custom gear shifter.
West Key is an island downuder Miami, Vacation island for the big city people that want to slow the pace. We came for two nights, went snorkiling and even saw a shark thinking about dinning us, but Israeli's kicks all the way down, he went on to do what ever sharks do. on the second night we went out...movie 1....movie 2...movie 3.
The Parental Neglecting Report
Miami when you cross Ocean Dr or Collins Ave and spots 100 Israeli's on the street, you know you're in Miami-TelAviv, also known as Miami-Beach. It's hot it's humidity and full with flip-flops and hot body's. we spent two nights going out. meet Colombian girls ( didn't went well ) and we couldn't miss Infected-Mushroom playing at the pawn-shop. going there with all the Israeli's felt like we were at the Namal Tel-Aviv, surrounded by Israel's.

Orlando is the best theme park city ever. it has to many amusement parks, you can spend easily 10 day's wandering from one ride to another and still miss a ride or two. we did Universal-Studios park and Apcot at Disney World. after many roller-coaster and spinning carts, we said enough. but these parks are amazingly fun for kids big or small.
Barber raceway Alabama Wow that's all we can say and ask for. this race track was so much fun. and the facility around the track was amazing and the instructors securing the racetrack and riding with us were excellent and contributed a lot.
Deals Gap imagine a road, a very twisty road, a very very twisty road, so twisty that in less then 18 kilometers u get to go through over 318 turns, but this aren't just ordinary turns, this are the tail of the dragon turns, and that means that if you don't pay attention, the dragon will give you a strong hit... we were extra careful while riding there over 480 kilometers. we had 3 day's of rain so we improved our billiard skills in the lovely iron-horse lodge.
Memphis city was a major upset, it turned to be poor and unattractive. Elvis blvd. was one big ghetto street, we preferred running red lights rather then stopping and being sitting ducks for the gang'z. we slept at Tom Sawyer RV camp, near the famous Mississippi river ( mmmm mm... ) every place we thought to be an attraction, turned to be bad or just not there ( 3 hours from the map's far end ). the only good/safe spot was Beale st. which was highly touristed but nice and alive.
The GGGrand Canyon! 320 Kilometer of canyon. we dared hiking just 10.5 kilometer of it all. at night we met ranger Dave for a moon-night talk about the canyon in different perspectives.Its really hard to believe and understand how big is this canyon, and it is defiantly one of the most impressive and beautiful nature sites in the world. the power of nature occurs from every view and angle. a funny fact about the canyon: an average of 8 people fall off the cliff per year. and the ranger was proudly saying "we still let people die in their national parks".
Things u can do in the RV: sleep, pee(no number two), freecell and pinball. DaWeEd did a record of 10M.
Las Vegas baby. slot machine city and great buffet. Vegas welcomed us with a grill weather set on 48c.
We did some slot machines to get free drinks, and checked a club, but no luck. the peak was the all you can eat lunch-attack, which became also dinner and we had it at MGM hotel. after 3 hours of chewing and biting we were full, then we just had to deal with the desert section. defiantly we over did it, needless to say. walking was a problem after.
San Diego At last the trip have started, we took the RV and the bikes for a ride from Yosemite Park TO San-Diego. 670 kilometer that took 8!!! hours.
We just got to San-Diego now, we couldn't get any sleep while driving from all the bumps, so our plan is too "crush" (not the bikes) for a bit, and hit the town red, blue, green and black...the colors of the bikes.
good night.
Yosemite park was the first destination we drove the RV. it was a really big test for the RV moveability in the park's narrow twisty climbs.did some hiking did some riding, but mostly sleeping :)
/p>
Thunderhill Raceway was saturday at the RACING TRACK! Thunderhill California is our first track together. unfortunately Asi got taking over in turn number 5...went off road and crushed. Asi was in mint condition, not like his, once was red, GSXR600. but no worry's, he have full-cover insurance :)
We got the RV! After they almost cancel on us for unclear reason, we got it. 25feet brand-new ford 3500cc. This is home for the next 74 day's. it coast us around $135 per day with out gas.
Lake Tulloch Wet Sunday at Lake Tulloch with Thad and Kirstin, our American friends. can you say JET-SKI ABUSE?
so far we have 2xZX636 and 1.5 GSXR ( Dodly's still in the garage )
YES! we have all the bikes we need for the trip! NINJA636 06 with 4500K for $6300. Gal bought the bike from Jim "the redneck". we drove to his RV park and bought it. Gal had to clean the bike like crazy from Jim's spiders and what not. Pics 1 2 3
We bought another bike! GSX600R 05 with PowerCommander and a new Shoei helmet. Look how happy Asi is, riding the bike back home to Stockton. Pics: 1 2 3
Asi sold his GS500 and the terrible Dutch pipe... ( only Gal's bike left now )
