My ///M5 On a Little Road Trip Across America

[AquilaBMW]

Not sure how long your trip is, but if you are coming through CO on August 10th or so, you should definitely join us at Drive 4 Corners and on the caravan from Denver to our event:

That is one event I will not be able to make unfortunately. Appreciate the thought though.

You really should think about Colorado Springs. We have Garden of the Gods as well as *COUGH* Pikes Peak!

[AquilaBMW]

I'm seriously considering CO. It seems absolutely gorgeous out there. I will keep everyone posted, probably from SLC, UT.

hey Kevin, I didn't know you're a member here,
His going above i80 and coming back below i40, so it going to be complicated for him to drive through Colorado

If you will end up going through Colorado, then i70 from Denver to i15 in Utah is way to go, it's absolutely outstanding route, with breathtaking views all the way, day time only of course

I'm 20min south of SLC

[Kevlar]

can't wait for updates... and unfortunately, i in the worst part of the world for a cross country trip...

Thanks Kev! And no worries, one day the trip will extend to FL

I had a little send off party / meet yesterday with a few friends....




Think this car might attract a little attention? Ran out of room for more stickers...

[TxDarth]

Years from now they might be talking all about Phoenix same as Simeon's Baby at One Lap America.....

Did you left SF? I saw you posted on FB, so

[RVAE34]

I see you are almost in Nevada now. Moving right along.

[NordmanMg]

Okay, I saw that too

Hi Fellas.... I'm now NE of Lake Tahoe. Out in the middle of the desert heading to Bonneville Salt Flats. My first endurance run of the trip.... six hours to destination. Car is still holding up. Wish me luck👍😎

I hope to make SLC tonight. So far it's 93 degrees outside, and KTMP is 83

Cool man

Hey way to go Michael ! I see your in Elko NV. Keep the hammer down and the rubber on the road!


I see your almost into Salt Lake City !

[TH3 Shifty]

most boring part of I-80 is from Reno to SLC.. nothing out there.. salt flats look cool, but after a while kinda play eye tricks on you.. keep your eyes moving

Thanks! Yup! Passed Elko, and then visited the one and only Bonneville Salt Flats! I am now in Salt Lake City for the night. If anyone is around tomorrow and would like to meet, just shoot me a PM or email.

It was not too bad as the Sun was going down. You guys have a crazy Moon though, it's like the Biblical Northern Light! BRIGHT!

Thanks man! Unfortunately, I don't think I am going to be able to make it into Colorado on this trip. I believe I will be heading up top Yellowstone later today.
