I'm thinking of 6 East and 160 West home. Each way about 2400 miles.

Wondering how many days/nights I should plan on, so it's not just a race to the destination. :hmm:

Why take 80 East and 40W I wonder? Same 2400 miles - 35 hours straight :windy:

Looks like both roads have a lot of history and visual appeal.

Hoping to pick up some rider from our club, otherwise may need to wait till the 30th Anniversary instead. :Cball

Do we still get new Dunlaps for "Longest '1,' and '2' Ups?" Cause I'll need new rear when this one concluded :thanks:

Well plans have been made for the trip to Nashville. Leaving Friday afternoon and stopping over night in Bloomington Il. Then finishing the trip to Nashville on Saturday afternoon. So Friday and Saturday will be leisurely paced rides. Friday I will be riding for 330 miles and then on Saturday 230 miles. For me that is not that much seat time
