By just going to the cities instead of the venues and using the freeways despite Hot Rod not doing that...

2,192mi!

Daily Approximate Mileage (Avoid Highways feature on Google Maps)
Little Rock, AR to Springfield, MO: 218mi
Springfield, MO to Lincoln, NE: 400mi
Lincoln, NE to Ames, IA: 216mi
Ames, IA to Rochester, MN: 211mi
Rochester, MN to Madison, WI: 209mi

[dand38s]

2906.12 miles according to Mapquest. Realisticaly it will probably be more like 3200 or more from past experience.

[Leon]

4900 miles plus running around mileage. It will be a short one for us this year!

[White Monster]

Without any side trips, my estimates are 3,530 miles in 54 hours and 26 minutes.

;)

[The Chief]

I think i win this one 11404.6 miles ;D

MK-london 60 miles then London to St louis 4492 miles then the tour including all the stops etc 2300 and then home

[White Monster]

Sorry buddy, but driving miles only !!!

;)

[pappyhemi]

If I am able to go this year it will be 3465.

The title asks how many miles for your HRPT08, doesn't say anything about driving ::). So it looks like The Chief has the long distance award so far.

[88pony]

2735 Just into the cities, not the venues. Plus after show miles. Figure close to 3100 -3200mi.

Better plan on adding a few hundred more for being lost and wrong turns.

[rexdogg]

1230 miles for the tour....175 to get back home....(1400 total)....650 to get to LR, but trailering there, so doesn't count...maybe another 200 more for horsing around in LR and at the different cities....1600 total ?....

[trukluvr]

Looks like about 2500 for me from my door & back, including all the extra miles. About 2100 just from my door to the cities and then home.

[wrenchn2]

Lets see gas $3 ... mileage 12mpg ... $1 per 4 miles.... Exxon stock looking good this month

[68_GS_400]

Estimated 2900 miles from Marietta and back... Roughly 57 hrs 18 minutes and 190 gallons of gas

I think you are dreaming if you think gas will only be $3.00 a gallon. I really hope that you are right, but I am using $4.00 a gallon when figuring my gas cost.

[The Chief]

Hey gas is still a hell of a lot cheaper in the US than in the UK, just need to find away to take it back with us http://www.mkb.cc/forum/img/smilies/rofls.gif

No troubles caused at all with what I posted and you quoted that I can think of. Bob asked "How Many Miles For You HRPT08". Sounds kind of all inclusive to me. For me it comes up to 2518 "quickest route" miles . It'll probably be closer to 3000 miles when all it's all over.

[White Monster]

Oh good, I hate being in trouble. It is usually my slow brain and fast mouth that does it, but here it is my slow brain and fast fingers).

Yeah, my mileage doesn't include "lost" or "excursion" miles either. When calculating expenses, I multiplied my map mileage by another 20% and used $4 per gallon of gas and 12 miles per gallon.

Should be enough ...

Let's go !!!

After careful review and consideration.
It has been determined that:
Its Vehicle Miles, home to home of Vehicle.

Its a Power Tour

[Orange95Z]

The Judge has spoken. With that said, who remembers "here comes the Judge, here comes the Judge" ;D, and who said it.

[Leon]

I guess that puts me back on top till someone closer to the coast checks in.

[White Monster]

who remembers "here comes the Judge, here comes the Judge" ;D, and who said it.


It was Sammy Davis Jr. on the Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In show, which was great.
I just loved Goldie Hawn in the bikini doing go-go dancing with body paint sayings written all over her body.
Yeow !!!
;D

[The Chief]

So seeing as im gonna ship the car home i can add 4500 miles onto the trip ;D

[1956NY150]

After careful review and consideration.
It has been determined that:
Its Vehicle Miles, home to home of Vehicle With a Driver in the Car

There should be some debate on this proposed modification to Rule 1


There seemsto be a little Trickerly going on

bob

[The Chief]

it was just a bit of fun, im sure there will be other people who will fly across to do the tour form destintions further away than me.

[1956NY150]

Chief

Your going to get an "Award" for something, we just don't know what it is yet.

Warm Beer?really?
bob

[DropTopZ28]

hey chief, just ride back in your car when you ship it home. that way you'll get credit for the 4500 miles. ;D ;D

[1956NY150]

Chief

You may get a bit of a surprize, I dont think you and your buddies. Will run into a lot of other FREAKS, doing What you guys are doing.

HRPT08 LONG HAUL

[White Monster]

Warm Beer?really?


Bob, nope, not warm beer.
Room temperature beer (which is usually in a cellar in ENGLAND !!!)
... even in the summer, it is still rather cool. I like room temp English beer better than any mass produced "ice cold" American beer.
Some Yank boutique beers are OK though.

[cstmwgn]

Personally, I like my beer COLD and my women HOT but here recently it seems I have them inverted :o

[tcbnj]

From home to Lil Rock ~ 1,250 miles - will try to do it all in 1 day

Lil Rock to Madison ~ 1,500 with side trips

Madison to home ~ 1,000 miles

Hoping to average 20 mpg ~ $750 ouch !

[The Chief]

Yup the beer isnt exactly warm, the correct cellar temp is around 50-53*F

We are gonna try and bring a few bottles with us

[White Monster]

The Chief,

Cool, please save a pint for me !!!

I vote for Director's or Sampson ...

;D

Re-do the math Junkies:

Projections are that REGULAR unleaded gasoline prices will hit $4.00 (that's U.S., not dracmas, pesos or euros) by Memorial Day 2008...and my ride drinks premium like most of yours do I bet. See you on tour anyway.

P.S. - I proposed developing a WHERE'S FREIBURGER? window decal for PT last year. But the idea failed miserably. Now that this is Dave's actual first year where he isn't gonna be there, I think it may be appropriate...maybe even a WHERE ARE CHAD AND DAVE? or CHAD AND DAVE WHO? decal.

[1cheapstreet]

I like the Chad and Dave WHO??? IDEA!!! ;D

Cheaps 8)

[Bigbuds1]

I was thinking about making on the computer,,, some "Missing" T-shirts up, with Chad on one side and DF on the other. Kinda like milk cartons

[moparjim71]

Looks like about 2,100 miles this year for us.

[mnmotorhead]

Same here, roughly 2,000 miles. I'm guessing it will end up being quite a bit more than that with around town driving.

[55lincoln]

2974 according to MapQuest not counting the scenic route Hot Rod adds

[60scarguy]

Hey 55Lincoln - same mileage with me - since I am assuming we are still travelling together with at least two other cars on the Wednesday from the west side of Toronto.

[cstmwgn]

Streets and Trips says 3,725 without any extra for the scenic rout (back roads and side trips).
Could be another 4,000 mile trip this year.

[Solsticefun]

Should be around 2000 miles for me, unless I get lost, which is a good possibility. ;D

[Impala_Guy]

891 miles to LR from home (Raleigh, NC). 1014 from Madison back. That's 1905 miles w/o the miles from the tour itself. That's not so bad. In '01 it was 2528 miles to get home from the final stop in SanBerdo.

[Bigbuds1]

I'm guessing about 3700 or so.......... ???

[cubby]

I am guessing around 2200 miles. 850 to LR and then just the tour back to WI. Madison is about an hour and fifteen minutes from the house.
