We have been watching you for a couple years and when are you going to back in Houston
This stream ran from 3:59 UTC-4 to 6:12 UTC-4 (8:59 UTC+1 to 11:12 UTC+1), it runs entirely through the Piedmont. It starts in NWS Raleigh (RAH) county warning area. The first chapter is Seagrove, NC.
0:20: 4:00 UTC-4, 9:00 UTC+1.
4:03 (UTC-4, 9:03 UTC+1). Steve leaves the rest area near Seagrove, North Carolina at 7:14.
18:30: Asheboro chapter.
26:03: Oops, wrong turn, I-74 was supposed to leave us (and may never reach Cincinnati…), not us to leave I-73.
29:15: Looks like US 311 hasn't been removed from signage yet, it was cut back from Randleman to Winston Salem in 2018.
37:33: Entering I-85. This should put us back on track.
42:47: Two-step transition: US 29 merges in, then we leave I-85 at 43:48.
43:48: I-73 junction.
43:50: Greensboro, NC chapter.
43:55: 36th Parallel North.
47:30: Cheetos truck going the other direction.
47:56: Merging onto I-40. We leave it at 49:48.
57:41: IMO I-785 shouldn't have been signed yet, as it stands now it's redundant to I-840. I would have waited for the gap to Reidsville to have been filled.
1:00:20: 5:00 UTC-4, 10:00 UTC+1.
1:06:26: Entering NWS Blacksburg/Roanoke (RNK) county warning area.
1:13:45: Coffee stop at Love's (Reidsville, NC) chapter.
1:13:45: Coffee stop. Love's near Reidsville.
1:28:30: Depart Love's chapter.
1:42:17: Leaving Greensboro/High Point NC MSA.
1:48:45: Danville & the Virginia/North Carolina border chapter. A further annotation reads "Stream crashes as Steve reaches delivery".
1:48:46: Entering Virginia, Danville VA µSA and US 58. This interchange is too large to fit in one state 😆.
1:52:57: However it was a wrong turn, as Steve turns around here, he needed to continue straight across the state line interchange.
2:00:21: 6:00 UTC-4, 11:00 UTC+1.
2:01:04: End of trip. Steve unloads at receiver. However the stream crashes while doing so.
Nice job backing across the street into their dock. Easier than I thought since they also own the building across the street and you could use that driveway. Looking at the map, first thought you'd have to go around the block. But that's why you're driving and not me.
We start from the Rest Area in Seagrove, NC to I-73/I-74. Then North/West on I-73/I-74 thru Asheboro and into the Triad Metro Area to I-74. Then West on I-74 to I-85 in High Point. Then North on I-85 to Business I-85. Then North on Business I-85 to I-40 in Greensboro. Then East on I-40 to US-29. Then North on US-29 around the Eastside of Downtown Greensboro and thru Reidsville and into Virginia to VA-86. Then North on VA-86 briefly to turn around (after Steve missed his exit). Then back South on US-29 to Business US-29. Then North on Business US-29 to delivery in Danville, VA where Steve does a live unload.
Cheetos truck spotted at 47:29. There's enough lighting to see it
