I am south of you all-greenbeanvw and just1morebike- in Utah's southern most warm tourist town. Perhaps this way we will be able to meet.

If you want to come south or come from the south, I'm in Flagstaff Arizona, south of Utah.

I move that we establish a "thing" to be moved around and carried from TE rider to rider such as:
the official TE lobster bib or ...
the official TE sock puppet or ...
the official TE banana keeper
and someone gets one and starts it off.
All those in favor say "aye"

"Aye", but we need several simultaneous, waterproof "things". Otherwise 'thing' gets stuck somewhere on east coast of North America, meanwhile someone wants to cycle between Australia and New Zealand shortly thereafter.

Gotta thing of something virtual that will map route and gives dates of end and start dates with TE name at start to meet up with 2nd TE in destination.
I know boring.........but we can't have 1 portable 'thing'..it'll take the next century to make its trip around the world!
Anything better on the 'relay' baton or this GPS route mapping? ANd we must set up a thread dedicated to this journey(s).My Personal blog on cycling & other favourite passions.

This sounds like such a cool idea. I like the idea of something tangible that gets passed along the journey but can't fathom how to make it really work. I'm sure there is a creative genius somewhere here who will figure out how to make it happen.

I really like the tangible 'thing' too! I bunch of mini-tours, then hopping (via mail) to another portion, like the TDF team buses do
And the best part would be take a pic with said thing on your bike with you and the next rider! I know there are programs that will put them all together like a giant poster. Surely, flickr or something like that has it! We could all upload our pics to a site like that.
I LOVE this idea. I'm in, in any case!
