I can't make it Saturday. Is there someplace I could meet with those continuing to ride on Sunday?

That's good enough for a start...we can do some exploring once we cross the border into Wisconnie.link no work
O.K. I've managed to double our travel time to Madison on Friday. Let me know what you think of this:
Click on the map to open the Google map. If I've missed a "must ride" road let me know; or post a modified map.
I'll try to make time to put Murph's turn-by-turn directions into a Google map.
I'll do a little searching & waypoint some county roads on my gps. But lets do head down to the Root River...that should be fun.

Thanks for the reminder about stops. I've been meaning to finalize the stop/break/lunch plans and have been bogged down with other work and life stuff. No worries ... check out my next post.I've been working on Murph's turn-by-turn directionsHere's the Google map I came up with:
Click on the map to open the Google map.
A word of caution: This map needs to be verified. There are no marked stops for fuel, rest, meals or whatever.
I omitted this from the Google map:
3:46 PM 240.0 Turn RIGHT (South) onto SR-171 [CR-E] 0.7 mi
3:48 PM 240.7 At Boaz, return North on SR-171 [CR-E] 0.7 mi
Murph, Did you plan a stop in Boaz?
This was also omitted, but not deliberately:
4:39 PM 271.4 Turn LEFT (South) onto CR-G 5.3 mi
4:48 PM 276.7 Turn RIGHT (South) onto SR-23 [CR-G] 0.2 mi
4:49 PM 276.9 Turn LEFT (East) onto US-14 [sR-23] 11.4 mi
Not a big deal. I think I reached the limit of distinations I could add.
As for that stop near Boaz, that is a fuel stop on the route just outside of Boaz.

Ok. Below is the final Saturday route map. While there have been no change to the planned roads, I have included stops for a morning break, a lunch/refuel break, and an afternoon break. Of course, after both pass-thrus of Wildcat, we most likely will have an impromptu stop at either end to regroup and consider circling back for another pass! 
Also, updated turn-by-turn directions (with mileage and time estimates reflecting the stops) are below. Remember that time estimates will undoubtedly continue to get off-track as the day progresses. Gotta be flexible.
The circled locations denote the planned stops and lunch break at A&W. There are a few places near the A&W in Sparta to refuel. The "P.M." on the map is a suggested short afternoon break after riding thru Wildcat...as noted above, we may or may not want to circle and ride the section again.

Crap, my GPS decided to stop working. Going to be sending it in to be fixed. Mean while will be looking for a donor.
Now, I have to find where my maps are or go Russian military style utilizing stars and moss on the trees
Are we going to stop at that lunch place south of the Wild Cat in Stockton I think it is. Can't find their card now. Great food.

My tentative standing has just become a no for me. Instead, I will be riding into PA this weekend.
Have fun!

Are you talking about the Rockton Bar ... home of Rockton Chicken? If so, someone told me it was closed. I hope they're wrong.
That's a big-time destination. We may have to make an adjustment to the itinerary. :thumbsup:

They are. I stopped by there in August and they were alive and kicking then. I will try to find their number and call.

It looks like my two FJR friends will NOT be in attendance. I will see you all at Denny's.

See you there.
It looks like we have a good chance at nice weather. Maybe this year's last weekend of upper 70s/low 80 degree temperatures.

For those that are coming out I would like to request that you provide the following information preferably before the day ends, if not I will be collecting it at Dennis.
1. Name (yes, that will be your real name)
2. your cell number
3. Name of a contact person we can reach to ask about you
4. their Phone number
5. any allergy and stuff
6. Do you know CPR or any first aid technique
I am not planning on sharing or using this info, but would like to have it just in case. You can e-mail your answers to me in the above format to alexk_msf at yahoo dot com
p.s. cell Number in my profile is correct, just while I am sitting in the office at my day job signal is not coming in, but I do see the number that is calling me. You can SMS me, that works however.

Looks like there will be people of different riding styles and different abilities on this ride as well as we will have two up at least on one bike. I can not stress enough for every one to ride their own ride.
Directions might look a bit complicated and some will simply decide to follow and not print them out. This sometimes causes a problem of people trying to catch up and do things that they other wise would never do.
To minimize on this I would like to explain what we, other club that I ride with, do to avoid loosing people and remove the pressure of “I need to hang on.”
When we get to any intersection and we are turning, this includes split in the road like a “Y”, each rider is responsible to make sure that the rider behind you is there and sees you turning. If after you complete the turn and not see a rider behind you stop and go back to that intersection and position your self in such a way that you are safe first of all, then that you are visible.
Once rider catches up to you, you take a lead and follow the group. Do not go super sonic. You will catch up, and if not there will be another rider waiting for both of you at the next turn.
Do not forget that leafs are falling down already and we will be riding through some heavy wooded area. Those leaves can be deadly. Stay off them as much as possible, or slow down at the minimum.
Let’s all have a great ride.
