Full belly? What about your tanks?

Mad River and his math skills spent Friday and Saturday marking miles between every gas stop! For you small tanked folks out there I would be sure to thank him. 
Not that I did not mind stopping every 30min or so.

Gas stops for Day One
  1. 40.8 miles to first gas stop
  2. 40.4 to next gas on left
  3. 54 to gas at 100 &4
  4. 35 from there to farm (there is gas on way, 31 miles from last stop where we should all gas up before the end)

Gas stops for Day Two
  • Since we all gassed up the night before and the morning loop returns right by the gas station - there is no need to mark it - loop is 48 miles (but it is in the mountains)
  1. First stop is Stowe - Mobil at corner of 108 and turn to Smuggs - 38 miles from farm
  2. Next stop is bottom of smugglers - the distance is less than 25 miles but you will want to stop for what my friend Vivere Libero considered the motorcycle equivalent of the postcoital cigarette
  3. 41 miles down 2a and 116 to gas on route 17 before the Bristol Gap -
  4. Last gas stop is at the citgo before the Granville gulf approx. 35 miles from gas in Bristol

Pre Run!

Your friends at the Wicked Pilgrim Run are taking off this weekend to map out the route, mark gas stops and put the final touches on the run. Should be a blast.
There has been a ton of inter-web talk about this event, so keep the chatter alive! Make sure to tell your friends too.
