Going to start my Saddlesore 1000 ride tomorrow morning (8/30/2014) at about 530am ET. I normally do at least 786 mile one day ride at least 3 times a year (in about 13 hours each time), so I decided to add another 250 miles to the trip so I can get the paperwork done. I am going to start in Henryville Indiana, take I-65 down to Gulf Shores, take I-10 east to I-75 in Florida, and I-75 down to Fl Hwy 121 to Williston (or Fl Hwy 24 to Archer).
It may be a bad day since it is Labor Day weekend, but my main concern in time is FOOTBALL. University of Alabama has a home game west of Birmingham and Auburn has a home game East of Montgomery, but luckily, Florida State (Tallahassee) is away in Oklahoma. If any of you guys see a red nc700x with a black topbox with a backpack attached to it, give a wave
.
Tentative plan, leave Henryville at 530am ET, roll thru Nashville Tn at 730CT (830Et), Birmingham Al around 11am CT, Montgomery around 1pm CT, Gulf Shores around 430pm CT, Tallahassee Fl at 9pm CT and Williston Fl around midnight CT or 11pm ET. Includes my quick fuel stops, and 2 quick food stops, with a some leeway for traffic, but I probably wont make it to Williston until Midnight ET (instead of CT), I will probably take a longer food stop somewhere east of Gulf shores.
