  1. OK, I'll be the counterpoint... I personally wouldn't be interested in night or scenery riding, but others may. I think that people who like to ride fast are going to want to ride fast...slow...etc. It's like if you have a group that's 50/50 Harleys/Sportbikes, no matter what pace you choose half riders won't be having fun. In my experience, grouping people by skill is the most amicable way so some people don't feel pressured to ride quicker, while others are bored. Another thought...while I like riding Ohio roads, I ride them frequently. If I'm going to do an overnight or 2, it would be in WV, TN, or someplace that I can't reach in a typical 1 day ride.
  2. I am all for changing the route. McConnelsville is a good cetralized meet spot. The pavilion on 78 right on the river, across the street from the Marathon can hold a lot of bikes. There are lots of good route options in/out of McConnelsville. Woodsfield is another meet spot in the middle of lots of really good routes, but it isn't a central location.
  3. I remember motorcycles and faces better than names. No one in the fast group broke rule #3. No cops. No drops. For an after ride wind down, I just drank a shit ton of vodka at my neighbors house.
  4. I doubt I'll be at Lodi that early. I'll catch up to the group somewhere along the route. I'll most likely be on the CBR.
  5. Welcome to Fast Group. The first rule of Fast Group is: you do not talk about Fast Group. The second rule of Fast Group is: you DO NOT TALK ABOUT FAST GROUP! Third rule of Fast Group: there is no crashing in Fast Group!Fourth rule of Fast Group: everyone will ride within their limits!Fifth rule of Fast Group: pass each other only to adjust the ride order and not in turns.
  6. Haven't decided what I'll be riding or what time I'm heading out. The VFR has never been to southern Ohio...yet.

    ISIS

    Arming others is a terrible idea. Weapons can be captured and political alliances change frequently in that part of the world.
  8. I wound up riding 676 last month. I wouldn't call 676 a good road if you like to ride at a spirited pace. Especially in the direction going towards Marietta. The turns aren't "flowing" and there are a few decreasing radius corners that can bite you if your pace it too quick. The jump is heading toward Marietta, I believe between 555 and 792. In one of the straights there is a sign that says "Bump 25 mph," but it's really a small hill about 8 ft tall. It looks pretty innocent, but if you are going over 65-70 you will get airborne.

    ISIS

    Completely separate groups. We are not working with Assad. The US and Assad have a common enemy in ISIS. Assad has multiple enemies.

    There is less ISIS than there was yesterday.
  12. What if I told you my black friends are racist cops?
  13. I'll go ahead and ask this questions to my black friends.
  14. What do you tip an Amish stripper? <insert punch line>
