Do you own a Yamaha XJ and you also have heard about the interesting story from the first XJ relay, which started in 1999 and ended in 2005 at the National Motorcycle Museum in Anamosa, Iowa . You can find more information and the full story on the website
www.xjrelay.com. The idea behind this XJ relay was to create a link between the virtual world to the real world and to get in contact with other XJ fellows.
When I have heard about this project I was very interested, but I never had had the possibility to participate. Because I expect, that there are other XJ driver there, who would also be interested in a new edition of the XJ relay, I am looking for other XJ owners from all over Europe, to plan a second Europe wide edition of the famous XJ relay. I think that it should be possible to involve XJ drivers from all the 25 member countries of the European union to this project in 2006. But also drivers from non European countries are more than welcome too. My idea is to send also a backpack to all the capital cities in Europe during the next year. The minimum distance to connect all the European capital cities is approximately between 15.000 and 20.000 kilometers and the distance between the north and the south of Europe is more than 5000 kilometers.
But there are also a couple of questions. Would it be possible to get as much drivers together that the backpack is every day delivered from one fellow to the other? Would it be possible to cover every European country? If you are also interested in the answer to this questions, it would be absolutely great to join into the community of relay drivers for the European edition of the XJ relay 2006.
If you are interested in participating and supporting this idea, please leave your comments and suggestions at the XJ relay column -
