Yeah, we did that last year. I would push for an earlier start. First bikes out at 0700 and they are doing breakfast at the start this year. Also we got behind last year when folks had issues on the options and had to skip some sections. Early also beats the heat and possible rain.


We can discuss Saturday PM.

I like the early start idea. Cooler riding and gives us time for the options.

If rut row says it’s 113 miles that means it’s like 500 miles by our last trips calculations... better bring an oil change kit! Got my rider pack yesterday and printed the roll charts. Is anyone else riding up? I’m gonna ride my dr650 up that morning from Gaithersburg...
