Right on Bob, I'm with you!
That happened on my ride to Sioux Falls and back last Tuesday. Found one of those "being repaired" roads so I whipped around and took a detour. Yep, more time and miles, but I still made it home for dinner that night. Jacked up the mileage from about 416 miles to 462 miles, but I loved every bloody minute and mile!
The highlight was seeing the "Speed Limit 80" signs in South Dakota, I do not remember seeing them, ever, except maybe in Montana back in the 70s? Speedo said 84 :lecturef_smilie:, GPS said 82, and surprisingly I didn't get passed much at all. Well, there are not many cars in South Dakota so that doesn't say much I guess.
