Or maybe the "Aviation and Incarceration Ride"?
I'll be leading a ride to Georgia to check out Andersonville Prison and the Museum of Aviation at Robins AFB on Jan. 2/3 2016.
Saturday we'll ride to Andersonville, check out the Civil War POW camp, then find a reasonably priced hotel for the evening in Warner Robins. Sunday we'll tour the Museum of Aviation, then head toward home.
I've never been to Andersonville (other than driving through), and it's been @20 years since I've been to the MoA.
Andersonville:
http://www.nps.gov/ande/index.htm
Robins AFB Museum of Aviation:
http://www.museumofaviation.org/
When:
Leave Saturday morning, Jan. 2nd and return Sunday evening, Jan. 3rd 2016
Meet:
Rally point: Race City Travel Center (aka: Petro/Travel Center of America), 75246 AL Hwy 77 in Lincoln (I-20/AL77, exit 168). KSU @ 8:30am
I'll be at the McDonald's next door @ 7:30am for breakfast.
Saturday - Route from Lincoln (@4.5 hours)...
South in AL77 through Talladega, Ashland, Wadley to Lafayette.
South on US431 to Opelika
East on US280 through Columbus to Cusseta/GA26
East on GA26 through Buena Vista to Ellaville, GA
East on GA228 to Andersonville
We'll tour the park, then travel approx. 1 hour to Byron/Warner Robins, exit 149 on I-75. Google maps shows a Comfort Inn, Holiday Inn Express, and Best Western there.
Sunday - We'll depart the hotel @ 9a and head to the Museum of Aviation. No set time at the museum...however long we want.
Route home from Warner Robins (@ 4.5 hours)...
Russell Pkwy. to US 41, 1 block south to Lakeview Rd.
Lakeview Rd. west to GA49
GA49 north to GA42
GA42 west to Roberta
US80 west to US19
US19 north to Thomaston
GA74 west to Woodbury
GA109 north to Greenville to GA100
GA100 west past I-85, through Hoganville to Franklin to state line/AL49
AL49 north to Ranburne
AL46 west to I-20/Heflin
I-20 west to home
Each day, stops will be every 1 - 1.5 hours, or 70 - 100 miles. My bladder will give out before your gas tank does.
Pace will be leisurely, and no one will be left behind. The pace may pick up when conditions allow. We'll wait at turns to make sure the group is together. Everyone is responsible for riding at their own pace...one that they are comfortable and safe with.
Unlikely, but there may be some passing. In the event that a pass occurs, each rider is responsible to make sure that they can execute the pass safely. No one gets left behind, so don't push a sketchy pass to stay with the riders ahead of you.
I will have a small notebook with riders' emergency contact information (including mine). Anyone that hasn't already given me their info can PM it to me, or give it to me on the day of the ride. The info is not shared with anyone else or used for any other purposes...all it needs to be is your first/last names, forum name, and an emergency contact in the event you are incapacitated. If you don't feel comfortable sharing this info with me, please make some type of arrangements for someone to be notified in the event of an emergency.

Andersonville is truly a must see.
I've always heard that. I know the MOA was quite impressive 20 years ago when I last visited...it's supposed to be even more so now. My grandparents lived in Macon, and my grandfather retired from WRAFB. I don't know what the official job title was, but he was the head Civil Service employee over the maintenance hangers. After retirement, he would take me out there as a kid and I was able to tour the C130/141's and play in the cockpits. I remember when the "museum" was just a few planes on concrete pads. When we lived in Florida, I knew when I saw the F104 on the pedestal at the Warner Robins exit on I-75 that we were getting close to Macon, and I could stop asking "How much further?"
Should be a good trip...hoping the weather holds out.

Afterwards, you need to get it up to 95...to check the fluorocarbon output.

Just found out that the Race City gas station in Lincoln is now a Petro/TA station. Not sure what signage may be up, but to avoid confusion it's the last station on the left before you go over the hill to Speedway Blvd., on the south side of McDonald's. If you've been through there during a Talladega race, it's the gas station with the vendor "tent city" in the parking lot.

I updated the original thread...eliminated the first rally point in Fultondale. I'll be at the McDonald's in Lincoln on Hwy 77 (next to the gas station meeting point) @ 7:30a for breakfast.

Not an official ride report, more of a pictorial recap. I won't attempt to duplicate any of Glenn's excellent shots, just add a few others that I snapped.
It was 29 degrees when I left the house. First stop was to meet Glenn, then we headed to Lincoln to meet the rest of the travel crew, which turned out to be Pat and a new BR member (and Spyder pilot), Cy.
(http://www.pbase.com/kwb377/image/162253270.jpg)
Over the last two days, the front of the Spyder reminded me of something but I just couldn't put my finger on it. I saw the pic above, and it hit me...
(http://thumbs2.ebaystatic.com/d/l225/pict/272088079289_1.jpg)
We had an uneventful trip to Andersonville, and stopped in the downtown "village" to grab a bite at the only restaurant in town.
(http://www.pbase.com/kwb377/image/162254521.jpg)
(http://www.pbase.com/kwb377/image/162254522.jpg)
The bacon-cheeseburger was awesome...mostly. Took a bite, and felt an...object. Luckily I didn't bite down and crack a tooth. Fished it out, and...WTF?
(http://www.pbase.com/kwb377/image/162254523.jpg)
"Uh, ma'am...there's a screw in my burger."
The cook immediately replies, "I've been looking for that...". Said it fell out of her hamburger press and she couldn't find it. I guess checking the hamburgers you just pressed wasn't on her "In Case Of Parts Loss" checklist. I didn't let it stop me from finishing the burger, though...it was that good.

Finished the day off with some cervezas, good Mexican food, and a live-action game of Frogger.
Day two..

There's a full-size C130 that can be toured, by appointment...

We didn't have an appointment, and our chant had no effect...
Need to fix up that old Phantom that's been sitting in the yard?

It was 29 degrees when I left the house. First stop was to meet Glenn, then we headed to Lincoln to meet the rest of the travel crew, which turned out to be Pat and a new BR member (and Spyder pilot), Cy.

Over the last two days, the front of the Spyder reminded me of something but I just couldn't put my finger on it. I saw the pic above, and it hit me...

We had an uneventful trip to Andersonville, and stopped in the downtown "village" to grab a bite at the only restaurant in town.

The bacon-cheeseburger was awesome...mostly. Took a bite, and felt an...object. Luckily I didn't bite down and crack a tooth. Fished it out, and...WTF?

"Uh, ma'am...there's a screw in my burger."
The cook immediately replies, "I've been looking for that...". Said it fell out of her hamburger press and she couldn't find it. I guess checking the hamburgers you just pressed wasn't on her "In Case Of Parts Loss" checklist. I didn't let it stop me from finishing the burger, though...it was that good.

Great pics. I've toured Andersonville and the POW museum twice now and it is a very sobering experience. Nice to see y'all braved the cold and had a great ride.

I have not seen one in any of the pics so I will ask: Do that have a B-58 Hustler in the display mix?
edit: just went to the website and looked through the list of aircraft on display. No B-58. :-\

Don't worry, Lawny. I'm still gonna do my prison and Warm Springs ride in a month or so. So anyone who missed this can join in then :)
