Ok, who's going to take Ed's roll chart and make a GPS track for us guys in back? Just joking, looks pretty straight forward Ed.

I'll be loading it on to my GPS, so should have a file available for anybody that wants it.

BTW, last time Ed let me lead and he rode tail gunner. This time Ed did the route, so I get to be tail gunner for this ride. ;D

Ok, I have plotted the route with Basecamp and loaded it into my Garmin Zumo 660 and saved the file in both gdb and gpx formats. If you would like a copy, PM me with your email address and I'll send it to you.

Thanks.

Sorry that you can't make it this time. BTW, we hope to make this truly "annual". as the first "annual" ride was in 2012. ;D

Getting stoked! Looking at where I cross the big river I'll bee line to Poplar Bluff then search out the letter roads north to Farmington. I just read some of eemsrenos Missouri back roads thread. He says any letter road is a good one. I reckon he would know. Can't wait to ride new roads! See ya soon. Mark

We will be riding freak's 300 mile route on Saturday. If some guys want to ride a short sample of area roads on Friday afternoon, I can show you a fun little loop of less than 100 miles. Say, about 4:00?

What time are you planning on being there?

BTW, in another thread, didn't I predict that you would be talking to Mark about a Grom? ;D
