Coming to America.... oh yes!

[Bob808]

I've been wanting to visit the land of the free and the home of the brave for 12 years now! Since I currently don't have any commitments *cough* unemployed *cough* I'm finally making the pilgrimage! :woo: :naughty:

I will be attending SEMA with the mythic & legendary The Godfather (aka Mike) and that will pretty much mark the beginning of my trip :)

I plan to fly in around October 27th, and fly out around November 20th, so 3 ish weeks to see the sights, and just as importantly, meet the Mischief members who have become good friends over the years :bigcry:

So far, in no particular order, I'd like to:
Cruise the PCH
Check out Beverly Hills & Hollywood
Eat a Philly Cheese Steak
Give free mustache rides
Go to the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green Kentucky (yeeeeeHAW)
Drive an Escalade
Fire a gun
Visit Washington DC
Attend a Cars & Coffee meet
Go up the Empire State Building
Be pushed and shoved through Times Square
Learn a cool handshake
Stand in the Glass box in the Sears Tower, Chicago
Say what's up holmes to a Mexican
Drive across the Golden Gate bridge
Go to a taping of Oprah to get some free shit
Marry an American for a Green Card
Go to an amusement park (prob not Disney though)
Visit the Guggenheim
Stroll through Central Park


That's about all I can remember right now, but I'm sure you guys will also suggest some cool shit :)

Aside from Mike, I hope to meet our illustrious leader Dado, I mean Dustin :D Gotta meet up with Sean, Don, Isaac, Chris.... just to name a few....

If anyone wants to join me on any of my adventures, they are more than welcome! Obviously I will plan my trip out. But for now, I'm just sounding out & looking for ideas :)

Should have my ticket within the next few days.... probably going to fly Delta, they have the best deals at the mo. I'm rambling, so I'm just going to hit Submit New Thread and then put a link to this thread in my sig ;)

Bob.

[Sephy]

Sounds like you have an awesome list so far. Learn a cool handshake cracked me up! Also I can help with firing guns. I have three here and can round up a few more for you.

[tumbler]

Wow. thats ambitious. You forgot stop #1: Go to IN-N-OUT and get a #1

[l3it3r]

When you get to dc we can all go shooting. I've been meaning to get to the range for a while.

Should try to get out to the karting track a summit point too :). Also, strip club in wv lol

[dead leG]

if you do make it to NYC, we gotta meet up!

[Snatchback]

When you get to dc we can all go shooting. I've been meaning to get to the range for a while.

[NoobiK]

[Dodge This]

For the fire a gun part, you should come out here. Scottsdale gun club has whatever gun you want to shoot

[GTR-Kevin]

Wow. thats ambitious. You forgot stop #1: Go to IN-N-OUT and get a #1
Order from the secret menu, it will help you seem like a local and you'll feel cool.

yes we have many guns here, and you get to carry them around no prob:thumb:

[Tonk]

I'll marry you so you can get a greencard, but it will have to be in states that allow gay marriage ;)


Oh and side note, I went up to Philly for a cheesesteak today :yumyum:

[Marks]

You should eat at Outback just for the hell of it. Let me know when you hit the DC area. :)

[Crash-Override]

Well "Go to the Corvette Museum in Bowling Green Kentucky (yeeeeeHAW)" is about an hour from me so looks like I will be seeing ya!

Since this is the south there are also plenty of Gun's, Escalades, and even Mexican's since all those are on your list...lol


Lastly whatever it takes to see/hang when you get here I WILL make happen, if you need travel coin or whatever, just ask. Hell I do need to make a run to Chicago to get my wife's present for X-mas so what about scheduling a trip to me, we drive up through Kentucky, then up to Chicago. Once there you can split off or ride back, or i can drive you to the next destination. Your call mang!!


btw, is it odd that when I read the title I got a semi??











yeah, didnt think so

[Alextation]

I can only hope

[Crash-Override]

Yes Stephan (wildhare) we will pick you up, stop whining....lol

[TrinitySRT]

damn... I didnt even get quoted!

now im really never seeing you :(

[Bob808]

So a Business Class return ticket from AU to US is only $400 more (Delta) than a premium economy ticket (QANTAS).... I think Delta may have a new customer :)

I've searched on-line, checked with AMEX Travel and I'm waiting to hear back from a travel agent.... so excited :) :)


damn... I didnt even get quoted!

now im really never seeing you :(

Are you blind? Post #22, right at the bottom. I was wrong, it's not tens of thousands, just 5000 miles.

[hyprspec]

+1 who's looking forward to meeting up with while you are here

[Mandy]

Oh snap!

[Don]

Awesome. I will definitely have to try and meet up with you while you're here. I've been meaning to get to the Corvette Museum myself lately so that might be a possibility. I can probably hook you up with a test drive in a new Escalade to if you haven't gotten it done yet. Definitely keep me updated. You should still have my number.

[Whitie]

If you drive through Missouri... Let me know, maybe i could buy you lunch. And possibly take you up on that mustache ride.. giggidy!

[dkbmxer002]

ill try to be around to buy you a beer! also how is mike doing? that's a name i haven't heard about in a while lol.

[Bob808]

Mike is doing quite well actually, he got rid of the E55 and got his S4 back :)

[MDe36]

There's plenty of people around DC when you get here. I'll use my black man card an take you to see obama:thumb:

[Affliction]

Hey bob, the wife and I are in San Francisco now, so we can help out with the golden gate bridge part!

[FitusMilbarge]

[WildHareMS]

Okay....so any plans pretty much set in stone yet Bobbo? :)

[áÜß]

[áÜß]

WAIT NO, they do the whole halloween thing so they will be open.

[Sleepy_Steve]

There's plenty of people around DC when you get here. I'll use my black man card an take you to see obama:thumb:

I heard that those were all miss-prints, I saw this on the episode of the boondocks where Huey was declared a retired domestic terrorist.



edit - can someone set up a bob in the US countdown timer to be similar to the one we had / have for miley cirus or whatever he name is?

[AWD ATTK]

JUST read this. Bob, let me know when you're in NYC!

[Bob808]

The ticket is booked, Visa is valid.... but I still have to organise my trip :blush:

OH, I want to visit the HD factory in Kansas City too! http://www.harley-davidson.com/en_US/Content/Pages/Factory_Tours/kansas_city.html

I'd love to see where the Sporster range is made :)

[Bob808]

Update: Vegas (SEMA) has been confirmed. I'll be in Vegas from October 31st (Sunday) to November 6th (Saturday). I'll be spending time with Mike aka Godfather and Si aka Biffter.

If any Vegas peeps are able to catch up, let me know!

Now I can plan the rest of my trip around this :)

Edit: I'm going to get a US SIM card (& phone number) too, not sure from where just yet, still checking out all the options available.

[The Godfather]

Yo make sure you hook up w/ Dustin, Tom and the rest of the crew out East bro!

[Falcon]

The AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum is right down the street from me. I live in Pickerington which is right outside of Columbus, Ohio. Maybe you could come through and we could all hit up the museum?

[Biffter]

[Bob808]

Indeed I do :naughty:

[Alextation]

Careful, all the American girls are going to go crazy after hearing your accent. You'd have to fight them off with your boomerang.

[Audi S4]

Careful, all the American girls are going to go crazy after hearing your accent. You'd have to fight them off with your boomerang.

Guess that explains why when I hear a female with a (non-american) accent my boomerang begins to think its "The American Dream"...

Wish you luck in the U.S. hope you enjoy your stay while here... If your going to be around the sunshine state, please feel free...

[Snatchback]

SO CLOSE!

[Bob808]

Indeed. I checked in (on-line) for my flight today :woo:

[Snatchback]

[CAG]

Flight sucked aye? No major dramas getting there mate? Hows the weather?

Remember, PLUS TAX on anything you see a price on it LOL

[Bob808]

Lots of turbulence, it got quite rough at times too. The weather is beautiful, like Sydney about a month or two ago, before we got all the rain.

Yeah, the tax thing is different, but after my first purchase I got used to it :p
