I'm looking forward to 4 to 6 days. If you require a date, pick one so we can start working towards it.

I'm flexible, too, I'd like someone who'se less fotunate to suggest a date, so we don't 'date' someone out
Also,if this works out, maybe you could stick a versy adjuster in your pocket before the ride down? I don't need it yet, but hey if you have one and are in the neighborhood, quick cash sale no shipping Wink

Not that it matters to me, but it looks like High Point has the longest rest room hike.
Satellite views all at same scale.
Orgin Point (white dot) is closest rest room
Destination (red marker) is furthest cabin of the group
Ummm.. ignore the route. You will be walking, not riding!

High Point

I'll be going. If the count gets close to max on a cabin, I can just commute each day.

South Texas Savage r Reply #70 - 01/09/15 at 19:41:04 I can be there either late thursday or friday morn. If someone wants to check in thursday, they'll probably have to rent the cabin. Not sure if you'll need the credit card you paid with to get the room, but I suspect you do. If no one else steps up, I'll rent the room for four nights starting friday.

MMRanch:

If you are going to take the Trace it will add hours to your ride. From Nashville to Jackson I know someone that took it and they made it in about 11 hours. If you go the interstate through Birmingham it should take about 7. I haven't done the whole thing, but it is relaxing ride. Just don't speed and I think the speed limit is 50 the whole way.

Best regards,

I'm in for sure (barring a major unforeseen event) . I'm looking up the long range weather forecast next.

Natchez is only about 5 hrs (or so says yahoo maps), from there to Killeen is 7hrs... so its roughly half way.
My other route is I10 straight through..... at 11hrs 42min..
Going from here to Natchez and then to Killeen would be state highways...much more satisfactory I would think....
I think the wife still wants to do the dragon thing in june-aug?
So i'll have to round up some funds.... LOL... or just stop playing pool this year.... Roll Eyes

I'm a "wanna go" "iffy" Cheesy

..... my health is better, so should not be a problem...

I would hate for you to end up in the wrong town and wonder where we were!!
