The Gorge doesn't affect us much. Its only about 12 miles farther to run 52-77-81 and you don't have that 26 miles of 50 mph speed limit.

i got a cincinnati run for tomorrow, i was looking at google maps and 77n 64w 75n looked like a good route. that run gets ran so many times during the week, i could probably go up one way and try a another way back. as long as the gorge is going to be closed, i'll probably try all of them before it's over.

The AA out of Grayson Ky off 64 might cut some time off that route if your delivery isn't right off of I-75. Its better empty due to some hills and stoplights though.

the aa worked out pretty good, it was 463 miles to cincinnati from mt. holly down to 485 and back over to 77n, i thought it was going to be alot farther, but it wasn't to bad. it really sucked pulling those hills on 26 back down to mauldin,sc. they need to hurry up and clear those rocks!:clap:

I have been running about as hard as I want to. Logged 6 straight 10-11 hour days and am resetting under load at the Holiday Inn in Willcox Az at the moment. I really don't have much bad to say. Its just trucking. I am actually looking forward to a little slow down for the holidays.
