Read this while on a road trip from FL to VA....made the long boring drive I hate much less torturous and more adventurous

I wasn't expecting this to be so detailed and well written....the part 1 cliffhanger was a real doosey

I enjoyed reading this. My only cross country roadtrip was a round-trip drive from Santa Clara, California to Norfolk, Virginia and back in a 1980 Chevrolet Chevette(!), which makes an S2000 look like a Bentley! Perhaps I'll be willing to take some longer trips in the S2000...it sounds like a load of fun!

And maybe in that process, we'll learn not only about ourselves, but about everyone else around us and finally see that we're more alike than we are different. At the end of the day, that's all that really matters -- we're in it together. The world is a small place. Hundreds and thousands of miles blend into one. All it takes is a single trip, with or without a Honda roadster.

Travel more.
We did nearly the same thing in 2010 when we went to HCII on a trip from Columbus, Ohio to LA. 5800+ miles top down every day but one morning heading west out of Flagstaff when it rained for about an hour. Enjoyed every minute of it in our 08 AP2

Great read! well documented, i would almost assume that writing/story telling may be a part of your profession. I will take any chance to travel.. if its behind the wheel of a car, bonus, if its behind the wheel of my S2000 even better. When i was 18 I had a spur of the moment opportunity to hop in a car with my father and get it to an airport in California...

I wonder how much fun a cross-country roadtrip in an S2000 will be with a cat as your roadtrip partner?

I'm going to find out in about 2 months......
