jackie Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 General route was I84 out of Portland across Oregon, Idaho, Utah, Wyoming, Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, Georgia and Florida. I think I got them all.... it was a good ride, hot in places, muggy, but mostly uneventful. Total mileage was about 3,035 in about 66 hours. More after I get home! Link to comment

Dances_With_Wiener_Dogs Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Dude! Err, math was never my strong suit...46 mph over 66 hours? Including fuel, food, potty stops, you slept exactly how many hours?? I am not worthy! I don't suppose you'll be making the BBQ next Saturday? That's a huge achievement Jackie! Link to comment
Pilgrim Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Congratulations, Jackie! I confess: That beats the best transcon I ever did by quite a bit, six hours or more. Good for you. Pilgrim Link to comment
