Road tripping is fun, especially when bikes are involved. 660 miles from Lincoln, NE to Bloomington, IN to pick up one of the four Gitanes I scored in a group buy this spring--my wife would only allow one in her trunk--and arrange shipping at a lbs for two of the others. I'd much rather be doing the same round trip as gomango--my wife spent several weeks in Florence and still raves about it even though it was years ago.
