Now you know that is not going to happen as you can't reach the speeds Mikey 
is talking about on those roads!   Its a pretty drive but one is gonna get 
bored after the second time around!

<My personal objection to moving the event to Reno is that it makes it too 
close to me!  To me, the drive to and from Las Vegas is at least half the fun, 
as long as my tires don't touch a freeway.  All two-lane twisty mountain and 
desert back roads makes the 10-12 hour journey a pleasure.>

Agreed on this one; even though its a long hot trip, we still enjoy it.   Of 
course, we don't take near as long even with a couple stops along the way and 
going absolutely the speed limits through those small towns.   Since 395 runs 
through Minden and Gardnerville (mostly 25 mph) from our place, we don't hit a 
4 lane highway until pretty much Vegas so have a lot of varied scenery along 
the way.

Geez, I can't believe I'm agreeing with Mikey!!   :)
