I wonder who came up with this idea the first time. :popcorn: :dunno:

Oh wait that was me. :yahoo:

I have been apart of both banners and damn proud of it. :D

I think I am starting to type like gunner. Now where are my meds? :icon_twisted::icon_rofl:

Wow, I can't believe it's finally 150 miles from the end. I would really like to see it with a Ranger by the Buoy.

Great job everyone. Dispite being stalled a few times, we all managed to pull together and continue its journey!

Finish it with an RBV as it should be and what it's all about. This is not a harley site and that brand does NOT represent this one. We can wait a week or so for any RBV to run it on in and finish the mission. Signed: Second banner signer Lima (after Caitlin 1'st) from Alaska. Lets finish up this per say epic journey as it should be. Kind of bittersweet after all this, damn proud of all of you and well done.

Flag?

Sorry if I sound ignorant, it's because I am to this flag deal. I'm a new member so I'm a little behind the 8ball with what is going on. However my son will be in the Houston Texas area visiting for about 3 weeks here in couple days. I currently live in Southwest Va. I'm not sure but if it will help and it is in the close proximity of where he will be he can get it and bring it back to Southwest Va. Not sure if that would be a good thing or a bad thing since it is trying to get to Florida but hey I'm will to help if I can.

It's in Miami now, not far to go. I'm afraid Houston is pretty far out of the way at this point.

Short version: We need a member, such as yourself, to take the banner from Miami to Key West, in a Ranger-based-vehicle, and take pictures to post here. Please contact the last holder of the banner to make arrangements.

For full details, please read the first two and the last two pages of this thread. For the complete epic, involving a few years and hundreds (I think) of participants, read the whole thing.

OMG...wow, we almost have ****ing made it.

I am so proud of everyone that was involved in this TRS project! It's beautiful, and so close to completion.

Gotta be an RBV to finish it. Gotta be.

Banner is currently with frankenstein95's father in Miami. Last I heard, he plans to retrieve it and finish the trip once he get a chance. If you can help us out and get it there sooner, please contact frankenstein95 to make the arrangements. Keep us posted to what's going on please!

You would think this close to the finish line members would be swarming to make a big deal out of it reaching Key West, should be a really huge celebration for the years($) members have put into this. Guess us Alaskans and Canadians are just going to have to come down and finish what we started since so many southern cunts only have one excuse after another, after another, after another. Don't like it then effin do something about it slack asses.

Come on down and finish it then. It'd make a great excuse to finally have a big TRS meet in the Southeast.
