Leaving at 7 or 7:15 should be an hour and a half ride. Directions printed so hopefully I won't get lost haha.

This will be my first OR meet up so lets make it good. I am all set to leave in the morning and hope to meet several of you

Ok I'm in for this. I'll take it a step farther and offer ice cream to everyone who attends. I don't know this area at all so I'm just going to leave the house at 7am (hour and a half ride) and get to the meet spot a little early. I am riding over from yorkville if anyone else is going from this area.

Meet up spot looks to be about an hour and a half from me up 250 or up 800 if anyone has a suggestion on which to take. If I leave here at 7ish I should make it in time.

Don't know any of the roads so I can't help on ride lead but hopefully someone chimes in.

I am a couple hours east but could be interested in a sunday and or monday ride. Was thinking of taking monday off and going for a ride, wouldn't mind meeting up with some new people.

Got to give the man credit for owning up to it though. Made a mistake, admits the mistake and tries to learn from it. Squids would be telling us how the road suddenly grew a pot hole and this deer ran in front of him and a unicorn messed with his brakes.

Looks like the guy on the goldwing knows his stuff. He is flying away at every corner. I'm new to the forum but still sad I missed this, looks like it would have been a hell of a great time.

done

thanks all

Yeah, I know. I've taken MSF and am going to california superbike school later this year. So far all is fine, I respect the bike and it has agreed not to kill me... for now....

Moved here about 8 months back and will only be here a few more months. I've only been riding less than a year. Bought my first bike 09 CBR 600RR before I was smart enough to accept that it was more than I needed.

I'm down to ride with anyone that's interested. I make trips to Washington, PA and to Pittsburgh a few times a week just to ride if anyone is in those areas. I work 7 days a week but I'm usually out of the office by 5.

-Edit to add: Purchased the bike back home (Mississippi) and rode it to Ohio about 4 days after getting my license

Checking out revzilla now, thanks for the help.

yeah the sizing is what I'm trying to figure out. I have a Joe Rocket mesh jacket in a large but I've dropped a bunch of weight since I bought it feels too big. I wanted to try on some mediums and see how it went before I ordered something.

Think the sizing is pretty standard across the brands? I'm also looking for a new helmet (want a Bell). Currently have an HJC. I am a large in HJC so I'm assuming I would be a large in Bell. Again why I wanted to try some on.

Any good shops around NE Ohio/Penn border that stock a good amount of gear? I live in Yorkville (work in Steubenville) and the only local shops here don't even have more than 2 types of jackets and no real brand helmet. Sorry if this is the wrong area, I tried to post in shop review but don't have a high enough post count.
