According to mapquest, we are 2 hours and 19 mins. Steve's not home yet to ask him how long it "really" is...but that has to be close! Are you coming this way?

No, but the Petty Family is. Have you heard of Kyle Petty's Ride?

Its him and whoever from his family, quite often his father King Richard, and about 200 other riders. They ride Victory Motorcycles on a planned route to raise money for his Victory Junction Gang camp.

This year the ride goes from Michigan to Savannah GA. They are stopping for the night in White Sulphur Springs on Weds 7/16. I'm gonna try and see if I can find the entier route tommorow.

I have never heard of this. I don't follow NASCAR, so unless it was announced on the news or in the paper, I'm clueless! I know I'll have to avoid WSS that day though. I am sure it will be packed. Let me know if you find the entire route. I am close to the interstate. If they go passed here, it might be worth it to be at the rest stop or the home depot parking lot to watch them go by!

Hi everyone

 

[Octoberbride03]

I'm trying to find the gas stops. If i can find 1 closer to you I might ask a favor.

 

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

Okay, I found this, which is probably what you had......

Riders will depart from Traverse City, Mich., on July 13, making overnight
stops in Elkhart Lake, Wis.; Lombard, Ill.; Lexington, Ky.; White Sulfur
Springs, W.Va.; Charlotte, N.C.; and Peachtree City, Ga., before reaching
Savannah, Ga., their final destination, on July 19.

If they are going to Lexington, KY then to WSS, then I am pretty darn sure they will go right passed the house!!

Hi everyone

HI DENIS! How are you tonight?

 

[Octoberbride03]

That's exactly what I have, I found his facebook page and put a request in to be added as a friend. OMG if I can find a gas stop near you, at a convenient time of course, might it be possible for you to score autographs for me? Specifically King Richard's if he's there. He doesn't always ride the entitre route.

 

[WDWCrazzyCunninghams]

we watched 2 1/2 men and now The Big Bang theory...never seen it before, it's cute. We love 2 1/2 men...watch it in reruns too!

Maureen, I can't find gas stops....

 

[Octoberbride03]

As long as it doesn't get me arrested! LOL

HAH! as long as i had video of the arrest it'd be fun. It might cost money, which I'd remiburse you for. But the money goes to their camp which is just for special needs kids.

As long as I don't have to take "The 6 Pack" with me, I will try! (That's the knickname I have come up with for all the kids this summer! Her 4 and my 2 make 6, The 6 Pack!)

You are looking for I64...I am at exit 39. Let me know what you find!

The ride page said pitstop info(aka gas stops) is on his facebook page, so I'm thnking I'll find it there. I just have to wait to be approved as an actual friend first. So we'll see when that happens. They usually do autograph sessions at the stops for whoever is waiting. And of course collect more doantions.

RIchard is a huge!! fan of Richard Petty. So if i could have just 1 autograph from him, I would be thrilled.

I'll do what I can!!! How much do you think they would want or would you want to donate?

They'll take anything you want to give big or small. I'll try to find out if there is a set price for autographs, Don't remember if they had a set price last year.

Maureen was trying to distract me on facebook..........NOT!!!!!
