ODU Main Parking Lot, Behind WEBB Centre. Hampton Blvd, Norfolk VA, 23508
Details: We depart Farm Fresh parking lot across from Checkered Flag Audi/Porsche at 7:00pm. Check to make sure you have snacks, drinks, band aids, charged cell phone, spare battery if available and a -2 Way Radio- set on an agreed upon channel. Also check vehicle. Make sure tire pressure is proper for increased weight of luggage, windshield washer fluid is full, gas tank is full with 93 octane as altitude effects fuel mileage. Make sure you have a VA Map or a copy of our destination and Alternate Route. My cellular is 757 6392465-Rob™. If it does rain, which is possible, we will attempt to maintain no more than 70 M.P.H. because the roads will be dangerous. Turboed/Supercharged vehicles should lower boost for safety and reliability. Bring along a basic tool kit. I will have mine, but two would be good incase we are separated for any unforeseen reason. Stops will be made for refueling to Full Gas Tank and restroom/food breaks. Each stop offers 93 Octane, food and restroom facilities.
Fuel Load: Usually fill up is 2 full tanks for this class of trip. Pricing for fuel, currently $2.25 Gal. For 93 Octane.
Fees/Roomstay: DO NOT SMOKE in the NON-smoking rooms, they Kick you OUT!
$72 per night for 2 x DOUBLE BEDS NON-smoking. This room sleeps 2 people or possibly 2 couples. We don’t plan on telling the front desk we have 4 people in one room!
$78 per night for 1 x KING BED NON-smoking. comfy bed, nice room.
$78 per night for 1 x KING BED SMOKING. Well, you CAN smoke in this one.
These rates of course can be split between the roomies in the room however you see fit. Please plan accordingly.
While Driving Details: While driving on this Tour, there are roadways where speeds in excess of xx M.P.H. are attainable. Please exercise caution when approaching these speeds and try to do so in a respectful manner to other drivers. Use your radios to communicate any abnormal action so we may be prepared. After all, Touring is no fun if you can’t push your vehicle.
