We will be fine either way..question though..will we go at the ice cream when we get there or wait untill after the tour??..just thinkin it will be in the jug from 8:00 to 2 in the afternoon if so..might be tough to keep it frozen that long...I guess it depends on when we get there ha..or just put it in a cart and walk around with it??   I really don't want it to go bad!! LOL.....

Rich, do you think we wil be done by 2:00? Dont forget we get to shop once the tour is over! Im hoping they offer some great discounts. I called up today to check on exchanging some parts that they sent to an upgrade. They are so good at customer service.

[QUOTE=dwright][QUOTE=manchestershark] 522 sounds good, it will be a COUNTRY ride. Have you looked at 322 west to 220/99 west to 70 and into Colombus? Looks faster, not that I want to run hard, but might be shorter. Road may be better as well. Matters not to me, I/we are just in the group. Pa T/pike will be tolled to 70 south. Will be couple a bucks? [/QUOTE]
DaveM recommended that we avoid Youngstown, but I99 to I80 to Akron to I71 to Columbus is 372 miles, 6 hours and 4 mins.
 
looks like US522 goes throuh a lot of small burgs, so it will be slow until we hit the interstate.
Probaby will want to stop for dinner before getting to the hotel.
 
Hope they leave the light on for us.
 
Are we there yet?
 
[/QUOTE]
Going down 522 to 76/70 west is your best bet. I just came out to Columbus and from 522 & 76 to Columbus took 5 hours with a stop for gas and a stop for food.
You guys may want to check with the motel in Columbus to make sure your rooms are held for you since you'll be getting there after 6pm.
Also note that after you get off 76 onto 70 west when you get into W. V. take 470 around Wheeling, it puts you right back onto 70 in Ohio, you avoid the city that way.
It looks like rain here untill Wed. Looks like it will be clear in Effingham when we get there.
Have a safe ride everyone.
Dave
