US 17, all of itPOSTED NOV 4, 2009

I just returned from a road trip to New York (I've decided against announcing my vacations beforehand on this website). Rather than taking the usual I-95 up, though, I expermiented a little and avoided the interstates altogether. A big part of the resulting plan was route 17, which I realized could drive the entire length of (bragging rights!) without going far out of my way.

More information, and photos, are on the Blacktop Classic 2009 page

This was the first road trip since the decline of my radio hobby, and I retired the "Roads, Rest, Radio & Relaxation" title (RRR&R 2001, 2002, 2007) for this year's trip. Instead, I am planning on using "Blacktop Classic" (if driving solo) or "Blacktop Invitational" (if driving with friends/family/etc.). The classier names were inspired from professional golf.
