Your expedition rig/bike with an aircraft!

[mr_ed]

C'mon guy I've been lurking around on here long enough...I know there's some foto-skillz on here! Post up!!!!

I'll start:

Somewhere in WY...

...and bored on duty:

Our expedition/adventure machines represent our inborn desire to tell the rest of the world to pack sand...we're doing our own thing! Kind of like aircraft represent mankinds inborn desire to tell the laws of physics to pack sand...we're finding a way around you! It seems only natural that these two things should go together!!!

Cheers!

My favorite "Expedition Rig" is an aircraft.

I lived in Blanchard...bout 45 min-1 hour north of Coeur D' Alene. I ask myself why I'm down here in NC every day haha! The answer is the CG sent me here. I'm hoping to get to Astoria in 2011, or at least Kodiak...I need to get back to the mountains! And I'm not talking the Appalachians, I'm talking about real mountains! :wings:

Funny thing, when I enlisted, I was a fresh-faced, home-schooled kid from Blanchard, which had a population of about 150 people. After boot camp I got stationed with the CG Honor Guard in Washington DC...talk about culture shock! :Wow1:

Cheers,

Ed

I like it up and around Coeur D' Alene its been a while since ive been up that far, well hope you get Astoria my family and I try to visit there at least once a year. I know what you mean about a culture shock Ive lived in Mountain Homw pretty much my whole life then this summer I went to D.C. to visit my son and we went to New York City... let me tell you I was stressed out being there.
