Yowser!!!
Now I know everybody is wondering how the heck did Motomac get that far from I 40???!!! Big accident just east of Clines Corner and shut down east bound traffic. Two cop cars after I had sat for 10 minutes. The amount of traffic in front of me said I was probably 30 seconds to a minute after it had happened. Probably 1/2 mile of big rigs and 4 wheelers. I had passed a Vespa 15 minutes ago and he startled me when he lane split up along side. Turned out he was from San Jose headed for Dallas on this 125 Vespa, decked out in an Aerostitch with a 550 Zumo and an extra can of gas bungied to his floor board. Any how no meat wagon. I figured we weren't going to go anywhere until it arrived or they arrived, so after conversing with Carole, I crossed the median and headed the 3 miles back to 285 and headed south and east to 54. I filled my gas tank at Vaughn and as I was topping it off I looked around and thought, "there is a whole herd of tags in this place". After tagging the old Juke Joint, I continued back to I 40 on 54 and there was no traffic east bound when I got to the big road. So, I don't how long the road was shut down, but I'm glad I made the detour. I may have had to camp in the median if I had stayed where I was.
