...worse than spring fever, so.... How about a "Dog-leg Right" Cruise? April 19th? Like to run Auburn Pond Mall in Worcester to Hampton Beach, NH. Route over 290, 190, 13 and the 101.... 100 miles or so and about 2 1/4 hours. Here's my attempt at a Google Map: maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&geocode=13950076107095620583,42.505230,-71.720450&saddr=Auburn+Pond,+Worcester,+MA&daddr=I-190+N+%4042.505230,+-71.720450+to:42.759113,-71.674805+to:Hampton+Beach&mra=dpe&mrcr=0&mrsp=2&sz=10&via=1,2&sll=42.5905,-71.464691&sspn=0.545956,0.913239&ie=UTF8&t=h&ll=42.593533,-71.152954&spn=1.091856,1.826477&z=9

Car is still in "break-in" mode, waiting on the tune...would be nice to get some more "easy" miles on her. I'd do it.

Yeah, this is a break-in cruise.
I'll keep working the details and post-up when I return.

I was thinking about hitting the show at UCon. I'd rather drive though so a cruise sounds good to me.

Cruise to UCONN sounds good, we can hit up our CT stangers.
Just did 2700+ miles on our Florida Disney trip...
Our first leg started off in a BLIZZARD through the Scenic mountains of Vermont & New York lasting 18 hours to the balmy Carolinas.
1350 miles home non-stop, started yesterday at 1pm... Several (many) stops for gas (driving the fully loaded 8000 pound F150 4x4) and food/pee breaks, and taking an extra hour to drop off 2 kids at their house, got home (with pizza) around 4:30.
Bonnie drove for 5 hrs, I did the rest...
Kept to speed limit +/- 10 and averaged almost 19 mpg in FL, 18 mpg through GA, 17 through NJ & NY, and 16 through CT & MA. Terrain gets hillier & temp drops, mileage plummets.
Getting ready for the August Rally!
The first overnight leg should not be a problem!!
Going to bed now. Good night.
