I feel bad for you.... I moved 50 miles from one town to the other, and it fucking sucked.

I cant even imagine a move that far.... my cousin is in the middle of a move from Cape Town, South Africa to Miami...

Been there (well, not Hawaii specifically), done that. Those moves between bases are crap, especially the big ones. How long are you stuck in temporary housing?

Hope it goes smoothly for you and I'll pray for the safety of your bikes in transit.

Big amen to the last part... Tracy's friend (who also is in Hawaii) had a really, really bad experience with that and his CBR.

That's exactly what I was thinking of. That and my friend's cherry '68 Mini Cooper Innocenti that magically had fried tires and a destroyed clutch from being shipped stateside.
