I've been on almost every interstate in New York and all of New Jersey. Haven't been able to clinch a few, but that's fin

It's been several years since I've been on I-30. I need to go again, especially with the impending changeover to Clearview signage.  There are a couple "oddball" BGS's I want photos of, like the "squished" AR 111.

I've clinched every interstate in my state, Delaware.  I've been on every interstate in Maryland, Nevada (if you don't count unsigned 580), South Dakota, Utah, and Wyoming.  There are several other states where I've been on every 2di.

I've clinched every mile of interstate in NJ (last bit was the stub end of 278), and will soon finish DE.
I've been on every interstate in my original home state of RI, but I haven't yet clinched 295...!

I have driven on all of the interstates in Pennsylvania except I-90, I-86 and the current remnant of I-279.  I've clinched many of them:  I-70, I-83, I-283, I-95, I-81, I-676, I-476, I-76, I-176, I-276, I-376 (prior to extension), I-78, I-380

I lived in Maryland at one point in my life, and I have clinched all interstate mileage in Maryland except I-68 west of Cumberland. (Thanks to the Baltimore meet in April, I finally got I-370!)

Delaware is the only state I've clinched every interstate in.

Of course, it's not that hard considering there's only 40 or so mile all in northern New Castle county.

I have been on all of the interstates in Alabama except one: I-759.  I have not been on I-20/59 between the Mississippi line and I-359 or on I-85 between Montgomery and Valley or I-10 from the Mississippi line to I-65.
Heh, guess I've been on all of the Interstates in Alabama, then.  Didn't realize it until just now.  Can't say the same for any other Southern state.

Been on almost all the Interstates in Texas (the only ones I don't have are I-27 and I-40 and the Pointless I-110(but I've been on I-345)

I've clinched all interstate mileage in Delaware, Connecticut, and Rhode Island.

I'm also pretty close to complete in New Jersey. 94.86% according to cmap.
If you always take the same road, you will never see anything new.

Come to think of it, I believe I have Delaware clinched as well.

I have clinched all Interstate miles in most of the upper Midwest, including Illinois (my home state) Indiana, Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, Kentucky, Kansas, as well as many other states like Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, Wyoming, Utah, North & South Dakota, and most of New England.

AS for US routes, I have also clinched most of the above states.

In Illinois and Wisconsin and the UP of Michigan I have clinched all the State Routes as well.

I'm very close to clinching Delaware, Connecticut, Virginia, and Rhode Island (72%, 86%, 71%, and 62% respectively). Don't anticipate clinching any of these any time soon though, as Delaware's missing segments are 95 and 495 toward Philly, not somewhere I go often, Connecticut's are I-395, again not a route I use often, Virginia's missing segments are way out west, and I hardly ever go out there, and Rhode Island's are all 3dis, and I hardly ever even pass through RI.

I've clinched all of Wyoming now, giving me Washington and Wyoming from behind the wheel and New Hampshire if my excursions as a passenger count.

If all goes right on Wednesday/Thursday, I'm going to finish up Nebraska too (I have the 2dis done, but I haven't done any of the 3dis (I did do 129 as a passenger once, but that's it), but I think I'm going to change that this week)

In Texas in my lifetime, I have driven:

I-10 -- from Fort Stockton to the Louisiana border (both ways)
I-20 -- from Weatherford to Mesquite (both ways)
I-27 -- entire length (both ways)
I-30 -- from Weatherford to Garland (both ways)
I-35 -- entire length (both ways, including both splits through Dallas-Fort Worth)
I-37 -- entire length (both ways) I grew up being around I-37.
I-45 -- entire length (both ways)
I-410 -- entire circle (both ways)
I-610 -- entire circle (both ways)
I-635 -- entire length (both ways)
I-810 -- entire circle (both ways)


Although I haven't actually driven the I-20 stretch from its origin to Weatherford, I did cross it's corridor at several points in Abilene, Odessa, Midland, and Monahans.  It's really hard to cover every mile in Texas.

I have been on all of Michigan's Interstates, and clinched all of the 3dIs except the easternmost piece of I-696. For 2dIs, I am missing a piece of I-75 south of Detroit, I-69 east of Flint, I-94 between Marshall and Jackson, Jackson and Ann Arbor, Detroit and Port Huron. I'll need to get a passport (or other similar ID) though to finish I-69 and I-94 because I'll need to enter Canada in the process.

My interstate clinch/travel update (any interstate I've been on including passenger miles, not simply driven on) in the Golden State:

I-280 (both directions)
I-380 (both directions)
I-580 (both directions)
I-680 (both directions)

I-880 (I think I've clinched northbound and am only missing a few miles southbound between 101 and 280)
I-980 (both directions)
I-238 (both directions I think)

I-5 (from Oregon border to I-8 in both directions, but I haven't been north of Red Bluff on that freeway since I was 1 year old; south of I-8, I have seen much of the freeway via riding the San Diego Trolley to San Ysidro, but never have traveled on it)
I-105 (eastbound from I-110 to I-605)
I-205 (westbound)
unsigned I-305 (both directions)
I-405 (both directions I think)
I-505 (from Route 16 south to I-80 southbound, from I-80 north to Midway Road northbound)
I-605 (northbound from 405 to Katella Avenue and from 105 to 60)

I-10 (from Route 1 to I-405 eastbound, and from US 101 to Route 39 in both directions)
I-110 (from Sepulveda Boulevard to US 101 in both directions, though north of I-10, Interstate signage only exists southbound)
I-210 (from I-5 to Route 118 westbound, and from Route 134 to Route 39 eastbound)
I-710 (from Route 47 to I-5 northbound, and from Route 91 to I-405 southbound)

I-15 (from I-215 to US 395 northbound and partially southbound, from Route 18 to Nevada state line northbound and from Nevada state line to Route 58 southbound)
I-215 (from Route 60 to La Cadena Drive northbound, and from Route 66 to I-15 northbound)


still to travel on:
I-805
future I-905
I-40 (I have been on I-40 in Arizona and in Tennessee, but not California)

I've been on every mile of I-40, I-8 and I-17, every km of I-19 and a significant portion of I-10 here in Arizona (have not gone east past Tucson, I-10 wise).
If you address me, call me Shiloh. I am trans. Thanks.

I did have all of Ohio clinched...Until they relocated I-280 over the new Maumee River crossing in Toledo... :verymad:

Every mile of Interstate in Pennsylvania?  Not even close.  Every Interstate?  All except 86 and 579.  And I was so close to 86 on a road trip in June I should have done it just for the heck of it.  I've even been on 495.  If anyone doesn't believe there's a 495 in Pennsylvania, drive from Philadelphia to Wilmington some time and take careful note of where the signage is.

Heck, I've clinched every Interstate in Delaware.... :-)

I've got most of WI.  I haven't done the entire length of I-43 south of Milwaukee, or I-94 south of Milwaukee.  Haven't done the 3di routes in Milwaukee, either.

MN- I've done all of I-90 and I-94, I-35 from just south of the Cities to the end in Duluth, and all the 3di routes in the state.  I haven't done I-35 between the Twin Cities and the IA border.

I might get those done this year, yet.

I have not driven any of the 6.5 miles of I-516, and I have not driven approximately 6 miles of I-520.
Otherwise, I have driven the remainder of Georgia's approximate 1244 miles of interstate.

I have also been on all the interstates in Ohio, except for I-470 and also I-490. I also have traveled the entire distance of I-84 (east). I also have been on all the interstates in Maine except for I-195. I also apologize for the overuse of the word "also."

In Michigan:

I-375 (entire lenght southbound)
I-75 (only between exits 36 and 77 northbound, 77 and 51C southbound and 49A to 43 southbound)

As for business routes, I have clinched all of BS I-375.

We don't have very many in Alabama, and most of them come through Birmingham, but I think I have been on them all (including the little spurs in Tuscaloosa and Gadsden) - although my memory of I-10 is very fuzzy as I don't get down to Mobile very often.

wriddle082

I clearly have all interstate mileage clinched in KY, and "technically" have all interstate mileage clinched in TN.  Does anybody think I need to re-clinch I-26 because they changed the rest of I-181 over to I-26?  I think the re-signing took place last year, and I haven't been to the Tri-Cities area in probably 2 or 3 years.

The next closest state that I nearly have clinched is WV.  All I lack there is on I-470 in Wheeling from the OH river bridge to the US 250/WV 2 exit.  I will probably be middle-aged before I get back up there again at this rate.  Next is AL, where I lack some of I-20 in eastern AL, some of I-85 in eastern AL, some of I-459 SW of Birmingham, all of I-165, and the newest portions of Corridor X/I-22 that have opened in the past 3 years.  Then next is SC, and I may have that state clinched in the next year or so since I'm moving there in about a week now.
