Countdown to the Trip begins

It time to start the countdown to the Route 66 trip. Lots of the details are finally beginning to be finalized. Today was a milestone because the official departure from Birmingham was decided. Mark your calendar for Monday June 21st at 9 am for the official send off. I know most of you may follow our send off from our web site and facebook/twitter postings. But for the lucky few of you that are close enough to Birmingham to see us off, you are all invited. We will hold our send off party, hosted by Alabama Clean Fuels Coalition www.alabamacleanfuels.org , at the Birmingham Jefferson County Transit Authority CNG filling station located at 3105 8th Avenue North, Birmingham, AL 35202. The rig including Mark McConville, the CNG GTO, the CNG refueling truck and car trailer will all be there for photos and press coverage. The GTO will be hauled across country to make its first appearance at the Barrett Jackson Auction in Orange County California on Wednesday June 23, 2010. More to come on the events planned for the cross country record breaking trip soon.
