My Antlers Rally itinerary

Here is the approximate route I will be traveling to/from the Antlers Rally:

Day 1 (Oct 1): Chandler AZ to Alamogordo NM via US-60 E > US-70 E
Day 2 (Oct 2): Alamogordo to Abilene TX via US-82 E > US-180 E > US-84 E > I-20 E
Day 3 (Oct 3): Abilene to Antlers OK via I-20 E > I-35 W > US-380 E > US-75 N > OK-3 E.
Day 4-6 (Oct 4-6) Rally
Day 7 (Oct 7) Antlers to Amarillo TX via OK-3 W > OK-39 W > I-35 N > I-40 W
Day 8 (Oct 8) Amarillo to Socorro NM via I-27 S > US-60 W
Day 9 (Oct 9) Socorro to Chandler AZ via US-60 W > Loop 202 S

Total estimated mileage (per Google Maps) = 2,354

These routes are subject to change due to weather, traffic, or my mood. It's probably pretty close though. The daily destinations are valid, all my rooms are reserved. I'm not setting out to do an iron butt ride, most days are right around 400 miles to allow for some sightseeing along the way.

Cindy and I take 300 mile day trips all the time.
It does not seem to me you could get much sightseeing in on a 400 mile day.

My "sightseeing" consists of stopping and taking pictures, maybe straying off the beaten path a little. I'm not going to stop and visit museums.

That makes sense
Have a great time. With any luck I'll see you at the National next year.

There is no finding that Brad. The moths have turned it to dust by now, where ever it is.
