NG08 Cruise to Memphis
Only 1 Month till the NG!!!
Time to plan the caravan.
I am trying to organize a large caravan. Here is the route we will be taking and the rest of the information from the thread I posted in my local chapter. If your route matches up with ours at all or we are on your way please plan on meeting up with us for the trip down!
I did a quick google map from our shop:
710 W. Epler Ave
Indianapolis, IN 46217
1. Head east on W Epler Ave 1.2 mi
2. Turn left at S East St/US-31 N 0.6 mi
3. Take the ramp onto I-465 E 2.0 mi
4. Take exit 53B to merge onto I-65 S toward Louisville 279 mi
5. Take exit 84B to merge onto I-40 W toward Memphis 182 mi
6. Take exit 24-25 for TN-385 W toward Millington 1.3 mi
8. Merge onto TN-385 N 16.2 mi
9. Take the US-51 S exit 0.3 mi
10. Turn left at US-51 N/US-51 S 2.3 mi
11. Make a U-turn at Wortham Rd 489 ft
To: 6656 US Highway 51 N
Millington, TN 38053
487 mi – about 7 hours 22 mins
So thats the directions I was planning on. We can all meet up at the shop if that is cool with everyone or we can find a gas station with a big parking lot to meet at.
I plan on getting to the hotel around 4 or 5pm on Tuesday June 17th. So we will probably want to meet up around 8am so we can be on the road shortly after that. Justin (Jhut03) will be pulling a trailer so we wont be able to go too terriably fast. Probably average speeds of around 75mph. Which should get us there right about when map quest says we will.
Let me know if anyone has any questions or suggestions.
Id like to plan some stops on the way down to meet up with other caravans so we can get as big of a crew pulling in as possible. We will be meeting Terry (Maximal Performance) in Louisville and hopefully picking up others as we go.
I suggest everyone invest in some FRS radios so we can keep in contact with eachother on the trip.
