I would like all to meet at the Newport Grand at 10:am, rather than an earlier time. We can meet each group seperately, as discussed and have breakfast before the Grand meeting. That would be the most likely starting point as one large group. As I mentioned, One photographer will be in front (myself) and Crossfirenorth bringing up the rear. It may be fun if we switched up a couple of times along the route to take shots from a different perspective. Facilities are available throughout the route for photo ops and bathroom breaks. Anyone that has a couple of walkie talkies, please bring them along, fully charged and set to channel 15. Unless someone has a better method of communication. If someone has the list with all the cell phones of those attending, please PM me with that info. For the sake of making a smooth ride better we should split the two teams into North and South, The latter meeting at the rt 1A spot in Narragansett,/ N. Kingstown.
Let me know if all of this is agreeable to the masses and we will be off and running. Any ideas or thoughts should be mentioned and discussed.
Thanks, Crossfire Trail (Rick)
Sounds like a plan, Crossfire Trail! My only question at this time is why have two separate meeting locations if you already know your way to Newport Grand? Unless people need to follow someone to find Newport Grand, or want to stop for breakfast some where, we should all just meet there.

I have two Uniden walkie-talkies that have channels 1-22 or so. I would imagine similar walkie-talkies would work in conjunction with these. Also I have no problem bringing up the rear.
