Ok, so the idea has been brought up several times at various events and in various discussions about a rolling RAA that would potentially cover more than one area of North America so I thought I would throw this out there and see what everybody thinks.

I had planned to ride the Hoka Hey challenge this year from Key West, FL to Homer, AK until they cancelled the ride in favor of a benefit ride across the plains of Kansas to Sturgis, but it got me to thinking...why couldn't we set up a Rolling Rocket Ride? Start in a location where there is a sufficient concentration of riders and start working our way around the country, picking up and dropping off riders as they see fit, but a Rocket Captain would be carrying the torch from start to finish. I know that the idea is not fully formed and lots of details to iron out, but what do you guys think? Anybody interested?

No plans or reservations other than a general idea on route, pack your swag and hit the road. Stop where the day ends at either a hotel or campground, see whatever there is to see then hit the road for the next spot. This way we could get a larger participation and folks could ride with the group as much or as little as they like and still participate in RAA.
 
OK so how about this...two day segments with potentially a day between to travel to the next segment. Each segment has a host (thanks for the idea @Idaho Red Rocket 3 ) The segments would be lined up back to back and strung out in order around the country and folks can ride as long or as little as they like. The idea being that if you were to start this ride you could potentially see / meet / ride with Captains from every corner of the country. Thoughts?
 
I posted this a short time ago in another thread.
This would be about 5 easy days.
Just FYI - Perhaps time for some RAA on the west side?
