What do motels have to do with anything?

I want it noted: Happytime was the one to drag this yet to be planned ride on down into the gutter. Yes, folks, for once, it was not I who squeezed the sludge up through my toes and over into this thread.

Sad? No. Relieved. I'm becoming the saint of Bike Forums, sort of soft around the edges (watch it with the wisecracks here...I'm sensitive), and downright proper these days.

looks like we need a poll or something...
it seems like we have a few choices...

a) real touring-touring bikes and panniers and camping and stuff. i would like to do this but don't have all the necessary equipment yet
b) credit card touring-hotels/motels road bikes and little bit of stuff to carry
c) ultralight touring similar to cc touring but with camping
d) sag vehicle and hotels/motels
e) sag vehicle and camping
f) sag vehicle and combo of camping/motels

i guess my vote would be for 'e' or 'f' as the easiest and relatively affordable. some one must have a van or large vehicle to use

oh and the date, that should be easy to decide upon

There is only one thing I'm willing to tattoo and it isn't my arm.
