so I'm planning an in-state ride in Kentucky. My goal is, roughly, a lap of the state which equals just over a SS1k. I'd like to, as an organizing principal, visit the north, east, and west-most paved point in the state.
Here's the trick: to get to the west most paved point in Kentucky, you must cross into Tennessee. There is a small, few-hundred-acre portion of Kentucky that is non-contiguous because of an earthquake changing the route of the Ohio river. I care very much about following the rules of the certification, and as written, I do not believe I can go there on the trip because it is not a border-crossing for any safety reason.
I don't know how many other states have non-contiguous portions- Michigan, obviously, but there are likely others- so I have to think this has been discussed before.
I will be crossing and crossing back at the same point, so that part of the rules I will satisfy. Does anyone know how I should handle this?
