Default Greetings from Madison, WI !

Just checked into my room about 30 minutes ago. 1925 miles down, 800 to go.

Yesterday's drive through WA, ID and MT was great. Clear skies and very fast times. I averaged 82 mph over 12 hours. No TT sightings. Miles City, MT is very quaint, no local internet access (.

Today's drive was slower. Really cold this AM, some ice in ND and lot's of construction in Minnesota and Wisconson. My average is now knocked down to 75 mph. I spotted a silver '02 coupe in Minnesota outside Minneapolis and saw a black coupe on 694. Also passed a AG fixing a flat. Wanted to stop but it was rush hour and it would have made it more dangerous than it already was. Hope you got going OK, whoever you are.

The OEM bra is holding up well. I find that wind gets under at the top of the headlights and pulls it out from under the hood a bit. This only happens at 95+ speeds.

Oh, also spotted a Hummer H2 in copper color. Pretty cool.

See ya in Ashville!

Default Guess I will have a mooning opportunity from the plane. I arrive at AVL >>

at 4:30. Steve Schwing's picking me up, and off to the festivities. I'll make sure all the beer isn't gone when you show up...

If I had known, we could've had lunch here. Where did you see the AG?

Default Without me though, I just got here at about 9PM :o) The AG

Was on 694/35E. Heavy traffic and a tight breakdown lane. One occupant, couldn't tell if he was getting started or finishing up. I *think* they were Wisconsin plates.

What time were you in Mpls? Remember crossing the river at 94/694 split? I live ~2miles from there.
