Mid-Atlantic Cruise: The Skyline Drive Mega-Cruise

No worries about that Randy, glad you made it that day. It was a very fun event with great company, great organization and great weather

I'm enjoying the scenic views for this cruise. Hopefully the "Oh no, popos" don't give us much attention then - It might be a great idea to pull out the "I love cops" sticker or the one from the Fraternal Order of Police. If all else fails, thank goodness for shado's charm (Something about the way he wears his hats)

Yes, but from all indications, speeding is not tolerated on Skyline Drive. As mustang said, they'll peg you for going 40 in a 35. The feds don't mess around. Trust me, my last speeding ticket was on Aberdeen Proving Ground, 42 in a 35.

Yeah, I mean if you read the tickets, they can get you for going 5 or more over anything.

They can give you a ticket for 1mph over if they want. A lot of areas in that part of Virginia will do just that. But 5mph is the general threshold in VA and especially in that area. If you get tagged doing 40 on the twisty part of 211 where the limit is 35, trust me you're getting a ticket.

I got a solution. What about bringing donuts, tons of yummy looking and tasty glazed donuts. Wouldn't that work? I heard they are suckers for donuts

Great idea. You take the lead position with the donuts, Cruise about 45-50, and we will follow. Problem solved. You're the best bird man
