I dont know myself. A rode up in Herkimer was mentioned. I would like to check that place out.
If the rode is way off the beaten path, there shouldnt be too much traffic, if any. and as long as its out in the woods/mt road somewhere no houses to blow by.
Idealy I picture a little “jug handle trail” or road that forks off somewhere and yields back onto the other road. We could put up a detur sign or road closed sign (I could get one I bet) and steer people off it. then just set up the start a half mile or far enough out of view.
Or just park someone at the yield with their hazards on, like in distress, and radio ahead if cars/cops are coming to shut down the event.
Kind of alot of work, but it could work.
timing:
I figure two options:
A: Honest co-pilot has a stop watch.
B: Someone stands at the starting spot and hits the stop watch. 2-way radio in hand. Finish point guy radios back to stop watch guy when they finish.
