Hello all,
I have conversed with a couple of folks here on the forum about traveling to NAFO via South Dakota. Well I saw a post that asked to post ones routes to NAFO. I though after looking at the "Players Map" that posting my info that there might be some other riders thinking along he same lines that I am who are in the mid-Atlantic states. I have spoken to Aviator and he was thinking about joining and I know donaldb was going to be in the Custer area the same time but because he was starting in Mississippi, he's route to SD would be much different!
So here I go; basically I am starting off on July 19th from Virginia Beach, VA. First night rest is 702 miles down the slab in Brookville, OH. Second day and night will be another 700 mile day stopping in Mason City, IA. Third day will be to Custer State Park, Blue Belle campground where I have a camping cabin reserved for three nights. I don't have any roomies yet but if your interest, the cabin has AC, sleeps 4 (one double & 2 bunk beds - bring your sleeping bag & pillow) and is only $45 a night AND we will be right in the middle of all those twesties on SD 16 and US 87! :yahoo:
Here is the route image:
The next three days (July 21, 22, 23) in South Dakota I was thinking of seeing the sites and riding the roads. I have three thing that are on my bucket list while I am there and they are: Mt. Rushmore & Crazy Horse, Devils Tower, WY & the Bad Lands.
July 24 is heading to Colorado. I believe I am meeting up with donaldb and Jackson who is from Hot Springs, SD
Here is the map for that but is NOT necessarily the actual route we/I might take. This is just the quickest route to Golden; there is some kind of go-kart race that I am supposed to attend to make sure Ari Rankum eats crow, or gets his arse spanked or something like that :glare: :
July 24 - 27 - well enough said, no maps necessary!
July 28 through the 30th is slab time home. Again I am planning 650 - 700 mile days and have rooms lined up in Missouri and Kentucky.
Here are the maps in two parts:
Leg 1:
Leg 2:
So, if anyone is interested in joining up or if my plans are similar and I could hitch along, please PM me cause I always think its a good idea to have a ride buddy along just in-case something happens and all those flat Supper Slabs get real boring! (no comments form the Scab and the Odot galleries please)
