Default 3 Days 407 Miles 98F or 36C In a CMP

Hi All

Well our MV Club just did a reprise of it's 2014 Convoy Trip, this year we broke the trip up a little more and did it over 3 days instead of 2 days which allowed for more social time and slightly shorter times behind the wheel. Of course we did manage to pick the first official heat wave to hit New Hampshire in several years with all three days in the 98F/36C range.

For me it meant the chance to drive my Pat 13 C60S radio truck 407 miles round trip. Cab temperatures not bad with both windshield opened halfway and the foot vents open, only was bad when we got stuck in traffic.

We had (2) M38, (1) M151, (1) M37, (1) M35 Shopvan, and (1) CMP Radio Truck. Got to sort through the GoPro to make a little video.

Looks like you had a lot of fun, Phil.

If you like driving distances, maybe you should consider joining us for Garden 75?
