[JONAT] Regroup / Rendezvous Points

[Dr Gregory Andrachuk]

Yes, a begining and end meeting point for each leg. Apart from that let's
let people move at their own pace. It will naturally occur that people will
travel in groups, but I don't think any of us wan tthe anxiety of not
feeling we can stop or push on because we have to travel in a pack. And I
doubt that any of us are so insecure that we need fixed meeting through the
travel day. Remember: FUN, not regimentation.

: My thoughts on rendezvous / regroup points is that we would have basically
3
: per leg.  One is the starting point, the second would be lunch, and the
: third being the ending point "official" hotel.  There was a desire earlier
: to not make the tour too regimented, so this may be enough (?).  The only
: "mandatory" one would be the starting point, so maps distribution /
: information / etc. could take place at the start of the day.  I expect
there
: will be groups that stop for coffee together, etc, but more on an informal
: basis.  Anyone have comments on this thought?
:
: Also, the timing for the S&T Maps is such that it allows for a 20 minute
: stop in the morning and one in the afternoon, with no set place to stop.
: This is set by the slower (i.e. main highways which one would normally
: travel at 60 mph have been given a maximum speed of 54 mph to allow for
the
: stops).  For more details see

: |I have been editing the itinerary for my sector using Adobe Acrobat.
: |Once I have all the changes made, I will send you the revised pdf file.
: |One thing I have added is a small blue circle at each location on the
: |map where services (restroom, gas, food) can be found.  I know for lots
: |of sectors this would be silly, but on my sector (and Ian's) you can
drive
: |a long way before seeing civilization sometimes.  It''ll be nice
: |for people
: |to know when they are passing the 'last bathroom for 75 miles'.
: |Have you thought about 'regroup points'?  For example, it is unlikely
: |everyone will get through Kenora together, so perhaps we should
: |establish some rendezvous points along the way for each day?  Or do
: |we just assume everyone will catch up?
: |I notice the itinerary does not allow any time for coffee breaks.  Was
: |this done on purpose?
