Who is going?

[ponch]

Those livestock trucks are worse in the rain. My bike smelled like one after getting doused. It depends on how it goes and how my ass feels. If I get to Valentine and it's not late, I may carry on. The other thing is, I was thinking of going north of Valentine and into SD that way. I've been on the RT 20 way by car and I was thinking of something different. Are there cons going through SD from Valentine? Gas is a big deal too. I don't recall a lot of stations, let alone premium fuel. It'll be fun I am sure.

The time change is 20 miles west of there so you get an extra hour and that can get you to Chadron. Another 40 minutes will get you to Custer. I guess it depends what time you get started to make it. Get in behind a cattle truck about 1/4 mile and you'll make good time and you don't have to worry about one running over you, or peeing on you as they go by. Have a good and safe trip.
