Default Fun Run #5 Official Information

Date: Saturday, November 1st. The weather looks to be clear and warm, so no rain date scheduled at this time.

Meeting Time: Between 8:00 am and 8:15 am
Meeting Location: The Plains, VA. See directions below.

Departure Time: 8:30 am

Driving Distance: Approximately 140 miles
Driving Time: Plan for 3-4 hours including mid point break.

Please arrive prior to 8:15 as we'll go over the route in detail then. I'll provide maps and the route outline on Saturday morning.

If you have hand held radios (i.e., Motorola's, Cobra's etc) please bring them along. If you have any extras, please bring them along as well. As many have mentioned, they are great for keeping big group informed.

Meeting place location:
The Plains, VA. Corner of Bragg St. and Stuart St. across the barn and alongside the railroad tracks.
Take I-66 West. to exit number 31- toward THE PLAINS/ OLD TAVERN. Make a right off the exit ramp onto VA-245. Take 245 to first stop sign (RT 55). Make a left onto RT 55 West and then make immediate right onto Bragg St. Follow Bragg St. all the way back to Stuart.

Mid Point Location for the late comers:
Shell gas station at the intersection of RT 211 & RT 229. If we leave at 8:30 am, we should be there around 10:00 am.

See everyone there!!
-Charlie

If you'll be attending, please vote above so I can get an approximate head count and know how many maps/routes I need to print.

Thanks,

-Charlie

Charlie,

I voted that I'd be there at the start; however, that reflects my irrational exhuberence towards participating in these fun runs. I'm probably not getting home from my business trip until 11pm Friday, so I may have to opt for the mid point. Just FYI...

Thank for the FYI, Jim. I'll have a map and route directions for you at the mid point.

Charlie,
As of right now, I'm in. I'll be at the start. I'll have two radios as well.

Okay, I think I found route 211 and route 229. Is it located just west of Warrenton?
