Re: 110

There are also FIVE frickin Interstates with that number! I don't see people frequenting Biloxi, Pensacola, Baton Rouge, or El Paso super often but a trip to Los Angeles could nab you a 110!  I have the little SR-110's from Iowa, Wisconsin, and Indiana. If you ever wanted to swim in the Great Salt Lake at Antelope Island, and experience how absurdly easy it is to float in that lake, you could get a 110 that way, too.

I've already gotten a 110 :sombrero:, but I'm still far from that. 27 is doable for me, I can cheat 28 as I have walked along a route with that number, but then there's 29.
Supporter of the construction of several running gags, including I-366 with a speed limit of 85 mph (137 km/h) and the Hypotenuse.

Please note that I may mention "invalid" FM channels, i.e. ending in an even number or down to 87.5. These are valid in Europe.

Oh, I've been on MO-110.  I just refuse to acknowledge it on principle.

I'm pretty sure I've actually been on US 23. So, my number is rising all the way up to 38.

Just grabbed TN 14, TN 15, and Caddo Parish Road 16 (signed) yesterday, which pushes my number from 14 to 17. 17 looks relatively hard for me to get; the best option for getting it is probably FM 17.

I have been on Route 0 and even 00.
I have been on Everything else up to 25. Many in multiples.

26 was the first outlier. I have crossed LA26 and MN26. But never driven on them. Ironically if you count as a baby, I traveled on TX-26 before it was cancelled and renumbered as US-259 in 1962. It was just 20 miles from where I grew up.

I have given up on the next one. I am through 56.




Let's build what we need as economically as possible.

After very briefly traveling on IA 1 earlier this year, my lowest is 8.

My lowest untraveled route number has increased by two, from 643 to 645. Returning home on Christmas day from my sister's place in south central PA, I stumbled on (and clinched) PA 643. I already had Virginia SR 644 in the Springfield area of Fairfax County. But I don't know that I've been on any of the Virginia SR 645s.

What about the Puddledock Rd/River Rd corridor in Prince George County that basically goes from the Petersburg City Limits (north of VA 36) to the Hopewell City Limits near Atwater Park?

I think it is much less likely that you have clinched the PG SR 646 (Middle Rd-an important local road that will be more important in a couple months when the new elementary school opens), and definitely not the PG SR 647 (Takach Rd-which connects to the west end of the Branchester Lakes subdivision).

Maybe check out GR SR-645, it may be minor, but it may have been recently extended. It runs from US 33 to US 29.

I don't usually wander off the primary highway network in the Petersburg area, which is more than two hours away from me. Usually I'm passing through in a hurry to get somewhere else. Besides, there are SR 645s closer to home (like one in Chantilly) I can pick off when I feel like it.

I have 646-648 covered already, in KY, MD, and/or NV.

UPDATE: On my way to and from the local computer superstore, I snagged the SR 645 I mentioned above (Lees Corner Rd. in Chantilly), and an SR 651 (Guinea Rd. in Fairfax). I already had an SR 649 in Annandale, as well as routes 650 and 652-653 in KY, MD, and/or NV. So my lowest untraveled route number is now 654, where it will stay until 2023.

Crash_It

Haven't been on Illinois Route 5 yet but I have driven all or parts of IL1 (even the unmarked portion which I have a YouTube video on), IL2(need to refilm), IL3 (upcoming YouTube video) and IL4. What's interesting is all of these single digit routes (so far) travel some varying terrain from a topographical standpoint.

Have you been on MN-5 where it multiplexes with I-494 south of Minneapolis?  Or on IA-5, where it forms the southern bypass of Des Moines?

I'm still missing 38 and 47, but I have PA 39, I-40, WV 41, PA 42, PA 43, PA 44, PA 45, US 46, PA 48, NC 49, US 50, PA 51, NY 52, PA 53, PA 54, VA 55, PA 56, and a bunch more, I think until the mid-70s. (Mostly just putting this for my own record-keeping, to make it easier for me once I hit 38 and 47.)

Right, this is about any numbered route, even the ones I'll poke fun at people for.
