A Blast with my Uncle
The timing was right as my Uncle and Aunt were down from Chicago, as always, great to see them.
My Uncle and I went out for a bite to eat and on the route to the eatery we traveled cown a County Farm Road that was just newly resurfaced asphalt, smooth as a billard table. and straight for about 4 miles. I do regulary drive a portion at 110-20.
My uncle who is 82 says lets see what it will do, so I run it up to 135, he says keep going... ended up going for about a mile at 155.. smooth and steady as a rock. than had to slow down entering the town.
It's one of those things that you can do when you are in the country and know the area well.
No traffic, cops or cross traffic.
