Like I said don't know alot about NC but I am learning.
Steel Soldiers now has a few new forums, read more about it at: New Munitions Forums!
Mapquest shows 110.3 miles from here to Denton,taking the I-40 to exit 170(hwy 601) route.
Or about 2 1/2 hrs or so by MV,there is 1 set of scales we will pass by on the west side of Statesville,and they have been open every day for the last 3 months in both directions( I have been working in Mocksville).
Given that there will be about 5 to 6 trucks(so far) meeting in Morganton,I am gonna recommend meeting at the Exxon station just off Exit 106(Bethel RD),there is enough room to support several Deuces/5 tons and trailers,plus it has a round drive,no backing necessary,and there are 2 diesel pumps,as well as it being away from the Hwy 18 exit where there is construction going on.Plus there is an easy return to I-40.
Just a FYI post.
Thank You for looking out for us. Suzanne will thank you for the clean bathroom. I'll have 16' tandem with dirt-bike (son can't leave home without it) look out for us at daybreak we'll be in CAMO. Exit105 it is.I'm having a thought here Barbosa.
Exit 105 (obviously 1 mile sooner than 106) might be a better stop for you guys coming from TN. 106 only has fuel and a convenience store.
105 has at least 2 diesel stations with easy pull-through pumps. 105 also has a McDonalds. You guys from TN may need breakfast. There would also be plenty of bathrooms.
The road beside McDonalds is wide and we can line up on the pavement. Wouldn't want to get our tires dirty. There is an empty lot where we can turn around. Might be a good photo op as well.
Just a suggestion.
how many people from the va beach area heading that way. Thinking bout headin that way was wondering if anyone wanted to convoy most likely be leaving thurs morning if do go. Hopefully be bringing both deuce and cucv if not just cucv. Also guy from work is tagging along in his tacoma not an mv but ill take any support i can get.
