TWF members "Circle the US" ride...

Depending on location people can join the ride and leave the ride depending on their time contraints. Arrange a starting point, pick up and drop off members as the ride enters and exits the next state.

Just a thought.

that idea has merit...

maybe something like a TWFix flag or something passed on and a picture taken with it in front of every state's "welcome to" sign?

That's a great idea, it gets everyone in on it and allows for different vacation time frames.
