Well I calculate that it should be 1 hour away, any slower and you will be run over.
MB not everybody rides like you and I....what's an hour for us could well be an hour and a half for normal people...

Have a couple pints..(pints=cold ones ...like the way I can translate?) before you leave, and you won't even notice that you've been riding on the wrong side all your life........but thinking about it...shouldn't be as big an adjustment on a bike as trying to do it in a cage...now that would be brutal....and one last thing..SUN SCREEN mate!! slather it on in copious amounts....you Brits ain't never been exsposed to sun like we got here....and if you need any help converting your money SP can help ya with that too....honest...you can trust me...just ask anybody in the FL CREW...Mr Trustworthy..yup that's me....
usually it's the person who posts the ride who has choice of the route... so I guess that's up to TJD...makes no diff to me...I'm good with either, but I will stick with the usual etiquette of leaders route choice...(no it's not a rule , just brotherly courtsey...)
I agree with that rule err I mean courtesy. If it is a scenic route, I'm in. If it's just up the super-slab and back down the super-slab, I may pass. Last time was great, scenic up, super-slab back home.
Even though I can't make it Sunday, based on past experience, I would recommend that everyone plan on arriving at Earl's a little bit before noon. After 12:00 the place usually fills up pretty fast and it can be difficult to grab enough chairs/tables in an area where the Crew can be together.
BUT...the burgers are GREAT at Earls.
Paul, If ya wanna know what Earls looks like, just think Giligans Island TV show. It is a nice looking tropical place. Did I mention the burgers are great?
If it was gonna be warmer than 36 degrees up here on Sunday, I'd ride down for one of those burgers. It ain't fair...
Paul, I envy you... coming over here and getting to go to Earls.
Gee, That has gotta be one heck of a vacation. This will be one experience you will not forget!
Anyone coming from the north? Not sure if I have to work or not on Sunday but if not I'm in for a ride.
paul, if I can go I'll ride in with you if you meet me at the coast. I've been there a couple times so I'm sure I wont get you lost.
