I love the idea of the sunrise in ME to the sunset in NH. I guess it's about 200 miles at the minimum. I am certain we could plan a 6 to 8 hour route to be a real tour of some beautiful New England coastal and inland roads. Also, the long day will give plenty of flexibility for those who might want to meander a bit more than some who would occassionally like to push ever so slightly harder (while attempting to adhere to the local speed limits). We could plan some stops here and there for lunch and touristy schtuff.

This would be very adventurous in that we will need accomodations in two different states. I think I would make a few days of it. Drive up to Bar Harbor at least two days early and stay in Gorham a day or two longer.

As this run would start in the east for sunrise and head west for the sunset we could call it the "Follow the Sun Run" or something in that vein.

Let me know how we can help.
