Rough Overview of My Planned Stops

 While I have yet to choose my exact route from location to location, I do know of at least these six music festivals that I am planning on attending. They are, in chronological order:

1.     Orange Blossom Jamboree

2.     Briar Patch Music Festival

3.     Full Moon Field Festival

4.     Firefly Music Festival

5.     Meltdown Music Fest 3

6.     Grassroots Festival of Music and Dance

I am not going to have much time to spare for the first jump. From my college campus in Columbus Mississippi, to the Orange Blossom Jamboree in Brooksville, Florida it is approximately 570 miles. My current plan is to leave here on the 9^th of May, right after my last final exam. The jamboree starts on the 16^th at noon. I will have to average about 81 miles per day to get there in time, which isn’t too bad, really.  If I travel for five hours in the cool early mornings, and another five after the heat of the day starts to bleed away, I will only have to keep an average of 8.1 miles an hour, which is not at all difficult on a bike. Heck, I might even get there a little ahead of schedule, although that may be a bit overly optimistic.
