I'm still on the maybe list, if I go I'd probably leave Rapid Thursday afternoon and take 44 out.

Maybe we should try to ride out as a group, If that works for anyone else. Are you going to breakfast in the morning?

I'm just like Jim. (I can't believe I just said that.)  I would probably leave early Friday morning and catch up with the group in the afternoon.

If you think we will end day 1 around Gross I have a place to camp about 5 miles from Gross on the Missouri river bank.
We have a cabin with a grill and showers with plenty of tent space. I could stock the fridge with burgers and refreshments or eat in Gross and motor down. I think Friday nights are steak night at the Nebraska Inn.
Just thought I would offer. If we are faster than planned we may want to keep going.

That sounds pretty awesome. Should I be packing food? Or will we be able to buy it in towns on the way?

Mark that is an awesome offer and may be something to really consider. Should wait on the planners of this ride to decide.

As for packing food. I always find on a ride like this its always good to pack a bit of grub because you never know when it will be convenient to get to a store or food joint. I have found on rides like this the riders will figure out what works best for the group as far as food goes. Things are always a bit flexible.

If we are making good time we could be well past Gross.
If its wet we wont make Gross!!!!
May be something that has to be decided on the fly.

Not a bad idea at all, hope for the best, plan for the worst. Bring whatever food you can cook over a flame whether that be from a can or whatever. With the number of riders anticipated, I just can't say for sure where we will end up. Thank you for offering up. Part of the adventure is all of the unknowns. Realistically I think it could happen as I had planned on SScalp creek recreation area as night 1 end, which is only 35 miles from gross NE and probably closer to Sandhills rider's place. Play it by ear? Last time I did it I got food at pickstown and headed to S scalp creek.

Remember, you might have to commit to a location on the first night wherever it might be.  A few are leaving the west side of the state on Friday and meeting the group towards the end of the day one.  Just saying.
