Hey Gang. Good info on the I-80 mess over on the Eplaya.

I'm looking to see if anyone has made that run in the past few weeks and can share there stories.
Wondering if Hwy 50 might be the ticket this year.
I-80 claimed a tire on the trailer last year.. Thanks...

    did it a few weeks ago, and if you avoid the busy times, then it's fine.

      same deal; there is a section that's "just like Beggars Canyon back home" that in traffic can turn into a stopped up sewer drain as soon as one driver in the pack has a panic attack. Basically, you're running between two k-rails exactly one lane wide for about 2-3 miles. Keep your cool and things are fine. I blew through it at 50, light traffic on the trip out, but on the way back I look over at the eastbound and someone must have had an 'issue;' was trolling along at what looked like 15mph...with a very long tail of pissed off traffic behind them.
