mekkab's Journal: G-burgher to Balto; redux

It went something like this;
at 6:30 on the frickin' dot, 124 to brink road/sundown to 97 to 70 to 40 to light street by 8:00 am.

Damn. An hour and a half.

We may try tinkering with the above route (more time on 70?) but I'm thinking 495-95-395..., what could possibly go wrong?! (or maybe taking 28 across to 95...)

You're going to try

That 270 South to 495 East merge? You're braver than I thought.

[sielwolf]

Please. He's the Nien Numb of this ish :p

Me? Lando... all the way... *pops Colt .45*

"Works every time!"

Yeah- I need to figure out that whole, 270 bullshit.

Perhaps descending 97? Or backroads too numerous to count?

Or skipping 495 and taking 28 across into 95...

Anyways- it ain't me driving the Mach Falcon (err, Millenium 5, err, Accord of 1789, whatever), its my lady-friend, a.k.a the W.I.F.E. (the Woman Is Fine, Evertime!)*

*- shit, I need to record me a Funk track with that chorus!

Yea, with that route I'm wondering whether or not he's trying to lose a tail via the sheer boredom method.

twenty eight

[SiliconJesus]

Stay off the DC beltway. Its a madhouse starting at 5:30am.

Trust me on this Mekka. 28 for teh win. Listen to the radio for closures.

Re:twenty eight

[mekkab]

okay. Combined Voodoo of 270 and 495 == power I can't take. I'm no ninja. 28 it is.

Listen to the radio for closures.

Like on 28 and 95? If its bad enough, abandon ship and take 70->40?

Re:twenty eight

[SiliconJesus]

Learn every road in between and the shortcomings thereof.

29 is a decent option running parallel to 95, Route 1 isn't.

70 / 40 has 144 running parallel to it.

Its actually worth the $12.95 to get the local ADC map books.

[mekkab]

Sounds legit. My Montgomery County book is 6 years old... and A LOT has changed in 6 years.

What?

[Em Emalb]

Buy a fuckin helicopter and chopper yourself in everyday.

I thought you were pimp Mekka?

What is this "stuck in traffic" BS?

Come on man, RIPTIDE their asses.

Then you and Siel, I mean, Lando, can Colt .45 their asses as you run up in the sky so deep, it be cryin.

(Have I used the Delta thing too much lately? I don't think so)
