Yep, outside of the metropolitan areas they have increased the speed limits to 70 mph in VA. However I would like to keep the speeds to 75 at most. Like last year, chances are it's going to be another Highway Safety weekend (I think they do this for the weekend before, of, and after Memorial Day) so there will be a higher than normal LEO presence. So we definitely don't want to be doing anything to attract any more attention to the group than necessary.

I also noticed on 23/26 through the mountain pass there were a lot of units there on the downgrades. Now, the speed limits through the mountain pass are around 60 MPH, so it's easy to speed especially when you're going down a 7% grade for a mile... and they will probably tag you for 5 over.

So we'll just take it easy and reserve the fun stuff for Thursday.
