well... there I was.... I needed to deliver a bike that I sold to a guy in Tempe AZ (I am in Houston)... the Sherco was in LA so I said to myself... self... thats only 300 miles from Tempe Az sooooo... time for a road trip.
8:30pm Thursday nite - I load up the bike in the van, and make a dead-head run to AZ. At about the 1000 mile mark, after driving a straight 20 hours with no sleep, I get a phone call from the Sherco guy - 'Sorry, bike just sold".
Well crapolla... ain't that my luck.
I'm' only another 200 miles from where I am supposed to drop off my bike so I continue the trip... I drop off the bike and start the 1200 mile return trip home.
I get almost to the Texas border (about 300 miles away) and guess who calls me on my cell?? Yep - Sherco guy - the deal fell thru and he wants to know if I want the bike.
Well another crapoola... I am now almost 800 miles away from him. Ain't no way I'm gonna turn around so... I am now back home again, but without a trials bike.
The search continues....
ps: Thank you everyone for your words - I might not be posting a reply to each one, but I am reading them.
