Name That Book! (please)

Kickstands UP!

Details are sketchy, but I know I'm leaving Charlotte, NC on 6/26/10 and passing through Cheyenne, WY on 7/8-9 with the Conga III ride to benefit breast cancer research. Please weigh in on tourist kitsch stops coming or going.

Most of them have Yahoo or Hotmail accounts and a LIGHT web presence if any.
