Poto distance?

Postby SteveF » April 28th, 2010, 6:33 pm

18.2 miles about right for a full Poto? Just checking if I have my computer calibrated properly for my new, slightly fatter tires...

Sounds about right.

Depends on where exactly you measure from. Are you measuring from your car? I measure from the outhouse at the start to where the trail comes out on the dirt road for the last time, and consistently come up with about 17.6~17.7. So measuring from your car, 18.2 sounds about right.

Thanks guys--sounds "close enough." (yeah, measured from my car, and I also backtracked in a couple of spots for one thing or another)

I consistently get 18.1 or 18.2 outhouse to outhouse with my Garmin.
