Medina

I saw sheriffs and locals ALL along 33 well into Hocking Hills. They. are. everywhere.

Ohio: large state, large motogroup, website isn't brand or type specific, brings in lots of viewers evidently, Well played OR

dang...I'm impressed, sunday afternoon holiday weekend? honestly I didn't think that many used the site. Impressive!

I took my van to Hocking Hills for the weekend for the very reason a gut feeling said too many morons out.

google "edit video online" yes, it will upload slowly, yes it will download slowly, it will however edit it using someone elses processor and most have the ability to link to the edited vid, vs. downloading then re-uploading to a site.

What are current user stats? thanks-

dam fine

This might be better compromise, about the same time, and sort of buffers the ohio part of it. the 303 route I'd forgotten about due to the amount of 35mph/traffic etc... http://goo.gl/maps/mjnHz ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ok, done, the problem with doing a scenic to Punxy is crap, it adds an HOUR to my trip. I took this once and with unforeseen construction and an accident took nearly FIVE hours to get home...its not safe to do 10mph over the limit on a scenic, but 76/80...I'm going with the flow of traffic at 80, a few times we were in a pack of cages and semi's doing 85 from just outside Akron line to my exit. 2 hours 15 minute run, Fumes and the first gas station, but worth it. http://goo.gl/maps/j0awR vs. http://goo.gl/maps/U2CyC

http://goo.gl/maps/sOCC5 Here, I modified one of my runs to Punxy. Honestly the first 45 minutes is going to suck goat hair no matter what you do heading that way. Hence why I hit the hard pavement and get it over with, however once you get to/past Mogadore, its still good time and something to look at. Enjoy Youngstown, the combat zone, LOL. once past Y-town, its actually pleasant, very interesting country side.

oh hell, 3 days isn't 3 hours LOL I dont think I want to do more than 6-7 hours a day now

Thrice married......and they simply, well..its...ah...let me say, I've learned to do my own dishes.

I run from Medina to Punxy (45 minutes distance to knox give take +-5) ALL the time. Like once a month, sometimes more depending on our schedules. I've taken 322 more or less, 422 more or less...and half a dozen side roads- you know left right, left right left right just eating up miles. but always wind up hawling 76, to rt. 82 to 36 you could take..what, 480 to 43 to 305 to 62. I have a dozen times simple headed east and meandered that way Its 2:45 humping from door to door (me/punxy). Scenic routes add upwards of an hour, and with whats waiting for me, I'd rather stare at boring hardtop and close the distance than ride. I've learned to enjoy the slab. I do 75-80, blast the radio, lean back on the backrest, use the throttle lock when possible, even with atgatt, I'm comfortable. I worry less about some deviant cager slopping two wheels into my lane hurrying down two laners. Parts of 422, and 322 are nice cruising. But if you're trying to point a point b...76, 80, 208 Now, once in Pa...man, oh man, millions of miles of outstanding roads. edited for route number screw up

ah, thanks

noob question: Which quaker state?

dont know you from Adam, glad you're more or less ok. bikes are cheap, I have the same 'wing' broken off (now encased in a 4x7mm layer of something that startled the MRI guy) I'm 55 its sometimes a problem, maintain your mobility at all costs, do exactly what the therapist says, and push it. insurance companies....so many reports on the amount of money they will spend so as NOT to pay out. read 8 pages, and now am going to call my insurance company and request a copy of exactly wtf my policy is, and is not, or may, or may not be. insurance companies....pfffft... gieco came under fire for those little cars that race out to an accident to give you a check? seems when you deposited the check, that was. end. of. story. Seemed cool at the time, but saved them millions in additional claims.

your insurance winds up being cheaper, and you'll learn things. i've started riding in 78 I unlearned something I used to lay my fingers on top of the brake/clutch levers, decades old bad habit. No more, took some discipline.

MSF do it dont think twice do it. study NHS what kills motorcycles (#1 cars turning left in front of you) study what causes motorcycle accidents keep your head on a swivel. the two accidents I've had....1) chasing seagulls in a parking lot 2) chasing a dirtbike on my chopper offroad Live your first year and your odds triple the following season (insurance stats, not mine) decide if you're going to be an organ donor. (or wear a helmet)

Gainesville.....lived there in '86...not surprised.

I'll check in. I should be back from Hocking Hills, dont have the kids on Monday.......so

Cool report, perhaps a subsection "bikes less than 3 grand" so ...cough...some of us aren't too embarrassed to show up.

oh crap! thanks for the heads up.......whew

Weather permitting I might make a run down there Monday, holiday and all. Depends, weather and traffic...high number of dumb to car ratio out that day sometimes.

added him to the facebook notification thing- brilliant and he eats libs alive-

Lol!
