Its prolly gonna take 8 -9 hours total (my guess) 5-6 hours of riding, plus 2 20 minute gas stops, plus a half dozen look at that view stops at 15-20 minutes a piece. I rode a bit of it on sunday, less than 50 miles, took me a little over an hour and there was no traffic at all, especially compared to the columbus day trip last year

Cool tommy.

I agree derf. I was just stating what gps travel time is. Total time is making a leisurely day of it.

I take it since I haven't heard more about it, you're just meeting me at waynesboro?

I got an easy 5 hour ride into tuggles. Going mostly interstate. Should be a blast...not.... I will probably leave around lunch so I don't get there real early.

Booked my reservations in Jeffersonville, OH for Wed night. I'm thinking I'll still have a long ride Thursday because I'm avoiding interstate, but I'm hoping to see some nice scenery along the way.

It said chance of t-storms up here so I was kinda figuring I may be dodging raindrops on my way down, I ma hoping its not anything crazy where it forces me ot change my departure time. I may be able ot make the entire trip with one fuel stop so I dont want to keep stopping due to the weather.

thursday has 40% chance down here, definitely higher chances on friday. Which will really really fucking suck on the BRP to get stuck in thunderstorms. Visibility gets bad fast up there. Saturday and sunday look awesome.
