I didn't look at the second day, yet, so maybe. I had planned to take it easy on the second leg and only do the 475...I am getting older, you know...

I sure appreciate all the time you're putting in the route/schedule.  Saves me the trouble....   I was hoping to minimize the interstates and make use of as many lesser roads as possible, but I realize that's really hard to do that when going that far.

What are the chances of veering the route slightly to the East to meet up  with the NY contingent?

I'm still refining the route. I have to balance time constraints against traffic patterns...I still have a few months to get it where I want it...

Guess I'll have to be....   ;D  If it gets too rough, leave me by the side of the road and I'll catch up later...

I would rather go through Des Moines on my way than $hitc@go. Are you up for a long day on Tuesday? About 475 from your house...

What?  I39 all that way??  You act like you don't want to go through CHICAGO!...

Sounds like a plan.   Sounds like I need to get Tuesday off from the boss....

I'd be quite honored if you would do that, Troll.  I believe Ratman is already possibly swinging by here as well, as I'm almost directly on his way down.  What day to you plan to make the trip?

That would be really cool is we could also meet up someplace on the way with the folks from over East yonder, and all ride down together.

I'm thinking Monday afternoon, so we could finish the (one day) ride to Maggie Valley from your place. I don't want to miss the "opening ceremonies" Here's a copy of the plan, as it is right now....

Hey, there Mr. Barn....I've been working on a route that takes me a 100 miles out of my way so I can stop in at your place, and we can go together....Still in the rough planning stages, but we might be able to collect a couple of others as we go....

Hey - is there a page to actually register for Drift In 2014 yet?  or not?  I reserved room, but seems like I still need to register.....and Collin just let me know he's taking off work and coming with us.....so 3 bikes...

Looks to me like the main Drift-In website is:
http://www.drift-in.org/index.html

They have a registration page on there.   Guess I'd better register...

Sigh.... I am soooo over winter... All this snow/ice/cold weather is for the people who live up north.... there is a reason that I live in the South for and well this is not it...LOL... I heard my poor bike  :'( crying the other night.... I do believe that it is feeling neglected...lol..

But I will ride next Saturday no matter the weather I have a benefit ride to do for a young boy who has stage IV non-hodgins lymphoma... :(

We will be getting to Maggie Valley that Tuesday... So we can get a little rest from the ride there before we start the group rides.. and I agree with Troll I had fun and meet many new people.. Cant wait too do it again!!
