    I remember running in huge convoys on the Ohio turnpike at 58 mph, nose to tail.

    I remember running convoys a lot faster than 58 mph, praying that you wouldn't be the sacrificial lamb if a bear flipped after us. :eek:

    I never was on the pike when there wasn't a bear every 10-20 miles. Like clockwork.

    it's already 70 on the Ohio turnpike. that sure surprised me.

    can't wait to set my cruise on 70 and be legal on 77.
