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.

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

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.

Rain doesn't really bother me all that much anymore, the visibility gives me a huge concern though. We will just have to take a slow and miss out on the scenery if it gets bad.

Hey Derf, did you get a new Sena?

I am bringing my wife's, so someone else can join the fun. Hopefully you got the new one so we can all talk at once.
