Default Florida PreRally Trip

I have a date for the PreRally Trip. The only day I can make it is October 13th. A Saturday. I plan on leaving early, because it is a long ride to Ocala from Fort Pierce. If anyone is interested, please post. We can arrange a meeting place once we have several people interested. I would appreciate some additional riders. I hope some of you can make it.

I'm interested in catching up with you guys. If you're heading up I-95, I could meet you at Exit #268 which is for route 40 to head towards Ocala (Silver Springs). I'm willing to meet ya at any reasonable point further south too.

If you're planning to fuel-up somewhere around this exit (#268), I'll ride down there and and find the right place with premimum pump nozzles and get back to you before the 13th.

I'm not sure if I'm going I95 or across 70 and up 27. I'm going to check the time. Shortest time wins.

Hey Poorboy,
If Murph takes the 27 route I can meet you at 40 / I-95 and we can run over and meet him in Ocala

I just checked the routes. If I take 70 to 27, I'm looking at 3 hours and 27 minutes. If I take i95 up, I'm looking at 2 hours 53 minutes. That is a 35 minute difference. I think I'm going i95 unless someone see why I shouldn't.

I'm surprised that 70 & 27 gave you that good of a travel time. Probably a beautiful ride, but dozens of little towns and slower speed limits would make it a long ride.

You got the Florida Turnpike as a non-stop option, but the tolls stink. Most of that I-95 trip won't be too bad traffic-wise. I have done several offshore fishing tournaments out of Ft. Pierce and have made that run numerous times hauling a 32' boat.
