Green convoy on I-66

GrokMakeFire · 10-14-2004, 08:16 AM

On the way home yesterday, within about 7 minutes, I drove with a White, a Tideland, a Black on 110 N past the Pentagon, and I dropped into a cool group. In the fast lane on 66, I came up on an 04, followed by a first gen, followed by a Civic hybrid, then me in my Seaside. We rode together for a couple of minutes, then I veered onto the Dulles toll road HOV lane, passing in front of an Insight.

The HOV-restricted roads/lanes are pretty well populated with cars of our type. Do any of you folks travel 66 and the toll road?

Yes, for a very short bit. On my way to work, I pick up 66 at 7100 (Springfield Parkway), and only take it for one mile to 28 North (Sully Road) - and of course the reverse route on the way home. Honk if you see my Black 04 BC in the far right lane!!

I travel with my carpool 1-2 times a week past Rt 110 and all the way east/west on I-66 to Gainesville. Usually between 6-7AM and 4-5PM. Driftwood #9 with spashguards with Priuschat license plate holder. CYA soon!

Westward from Alexandria to Oakton in the morning and Eastward in the evening .
averaging 48 mpg with that being the majority of the miles on the car
