[700 sportsman]

Ha, Tyler, I found it in the email, just as soon as I got the email I responded with the times to make sure I got the I time that worked best for me....cool, hell..google maps is saying like 2.5 hours from me, Jeff which way do you go to make it so short for you? Its got me taking the pike, and then I get off at exit 48, 132 miles 2 hr 23 mn

I asked rich out of curiosity, and he reccomended the turnpike too, other wise we would have to take 224 all the way across, and that would be pretty slow going.

FYI here's rich's instructions:

Hey Rich, looks like we'll be heading out to the tune to get my dads truck done. The plan is to make a weekend of it, we're planning on staying at the hotel Justin is. Not sure if we're staying Friday night, or being there Saturday. The apt. is for 8:00 on Sunday.
I'd like to go out for lunch/supper or what ever if Jeff is coming. Looking forward to meeting you guys.

Tyler


Tyler,
OK,I don't think Jeff will be there Sunday,if he decides to drive out it will probably be Saturday morning.
I'll be there all three days,including Sunday,I just don't know what time I'll arrive each day,probably around 9-10 o'clock.
Rich


OK, well we'll what happens. Do you have any recommendations on the best way to get there coming from Tiffin, Ohio (near Findlay)?

Thanks for getting this organized,

Tyler


OK,I see where your coming from....this will be easy....head over to the Ohio turnpike and take it,follow it into Pa. and get off the Pa. turnpike at the Allegheny Valley exit (exit #48) after you exit go to the right after you go through the toll booth (Do NOT go straight) merge onto Freeport Rd......at the 3rd light you'll make a Right onto Rt.910/Indianola Rd.,You then go through 2 lights and make the right to merge on Rt. 28 North (Do not accidentally make the Right onto Gulf Lab Rd.,its easy to do if your not familiar with the area,if you do accidentally turn onto Gulf Lab Rd. no biggie,just turn around and head back and make a right back onto 910 and then immediately make a right again to merge onto Rt.28)

Once your on Rt.28 you'll need to get off exit 12A,go to the light and make a Left,follow that straight through until you basically can't go any farther,you'll see the hotel to the Left side of you as your driving up-to the last light,its the only hotel in the area of the mall up there.

I take the back roads to the turnpike. It's actually 88 miles one way. Takes me about an hour and a half depending on traffic. You have to remember, I'm about 50-60 miles SE of you. I can be in PA in about 45 minutes.

About 12 miles, if that. I live damn near right on the Stark/Mahoning/Columbiana county lines.
