its about 600 Miles for me. With good conditions...9 hours is doable.

google maps has it at just over 12 hrs if I take 78 to 81 to 40 so yeah thats def doable for me. I just need to time it right getting off LI and out of NYC with traffic

We might be better off doing a midnight run like last time.

Can def do that plan it closer to them time frame

that could work, leave at midnight an dhopefully get there around noonish. We would just have to figure out where to meet up along 81. I think its faster for me taking 78 to 81 vs taking 95 south, any I bypass a shitload of tolls

That's easy, I get on 81 damn near at the Beginning of VA...Mile marker 300 IIRC.

Next exit after that would work...we could Fuel up together so we get on the same schedule and continue or trek

I hope to have a GPS mount by that time to...I find that to be a much nicer luxury on a bike trip that fumbling with maps and google direcions.

That works, the gps is def nice to have. I just followed fred in 09 and last year had hand written directions to tripps house off the interstate then followed them LOL

5 hours from my place, i love being in TN

Its 7 hrs from my place in nj, how did you get 9 hrs from your place?

Mr Lefty · 02-09-2011, 05:14 PM

I may just ride TO the rally rather than make it the end of a journey like the last two... but damn it's been a blast to ride in with you fools... I may just make a run up to Michigan to do a quick oil change in Gas's garage and ride down with him and Capt again.

Maybe we all try and meet up somewhere and ride in together... like all meet in BFE WV or some shit... be a hell of a ride IMO.
