The Route planer shows 3 routes between 312 & 360 km. Times shown are from 3 1/2 hrs. to 4 hrs. I have learned to add some time to what they say due to construction and traffic so I'd say it's more like 4 1/2 hrs. away. Give or take a few. ::tu::

Great find on that article. I love seeing glimpses of what goes on at the Boker factory. It is a special treat to those of us here in the USA.
