Sorry if that offends you?

Considering the area where we're meeting and the curvy nature of the low-speed-limit roads involved, it will take 90 minutes to drive that. In fact, I rather love Race Road for its curvy, country road nature, even though it's sandwiched between 295 and 95 in one of the busiest areas in the region.

Edit: It doesn't take 90 minutes. Don't know where that figure appeared from.

You do realize Google Maps only takes into account driving at the legal speed limit, right? We of course will not always be following that limit.

Looking at it again, it says it will take 71 minutes, not 90, and that's if we drive all the way back to AAM and not end it at Arundel Mills.

Some folks need to learn to read.

I never said anything about how long it would take. All I did was make a general statement about how Google Maps works, why are you getting so mad at me about that?

Sorry to have struck a nerve with the amount of time it takes to get anywhere in this neck of the woods. I so humbly appologize for offending you and wish you well on your lengthy journey.

Whatever. You don't wanna cruise, you don't gotta cruise. It's whoever wants to go. Believe it or not, I've led hour-long cruises and had people complain they were too short. Can't please everyone.

b1adesofcha0s · 06-19-2012, 10:59 AM

I was also heavily criticized for how our mega-cruise from Frederick to Pretty Boy went down. Some said it was too long or too slow.

There really is no winning.

I just want a cruise to dinner. Early bird special.

Meh that was broken into separate parts so if someone thought it was too long they could have left early. I thought it was pretty awesome. I think around 3 hrs is probably the sweet spot for cruise length. Not too short or long and it gets you done in time for lunch.
