Default Mid-Ohio Caravan

Figured we should see if there are opportunities to caravan.

As a start, post your departure day, time, and starting point to see if there are some natural groupings.

For me it will be:

Thursday / 1PM / Rockville

1 PM in Rockville might work for me as well. I was planning to leave DC at noon, so we could probably meet where convenient.

How fast are you guys willing to drive on the highways? I typically try to avoid the reckless driving limit, so I try to keep it within 10-15 (sometimes a little over ) of the posted highway speeds.

Also, which route are you planning on taking?

Finally, which hotel is everyone using?

I was thinking about leaving around noonish. Since most of you guys are MD folks, a Rockville meet is fine for me.

Good thread on Potomac for the Route:

Still trying to find the secenic route Tony was talking about last night. Don't know if you guys want scenic or speedy, but if we are leaving at 1-2pm, we'll have plenty of time.

I was planning on leaving Thursday around noon as well. Rockville is fine with me if I can tag along.

The overlook up 270 just before Frederick is a good place to meet. It's maybe 20 minutes north of Rockville, has a ton of parking but no services.
