	This is a great ride for anyone with a ADV bike that wants to see the Hocking Hills area from a new perspective and try out some great scenic back roads. Hocking Valley Motorcycle Club, the Spring Adventure Ride is scheduled for June 4th, 2017. Gates open at 9:00am and the ride starts at 10:00am. The address is 13121 Jake Tom Rd in Logan, OH 43185. From US route 33 take the exit for OH328 North and follow the arrows. The course is about 125 miles and the $35 cost includes lunch. The ride will be a mix of dirt, gravel and blacktop roads. Knobby tires are not required and the route is big-bike friendly. This is an AMA sanctioned and insured event but AMA membership is not required. I do breakfast before at Hocking Hills diner just off the 33/328 exit. on the way to the site at 0830.

	Wife and I just finished a short loop trip down thru KY; TN; VA; WV; area using route 7 as a N-S direct direction but we zig zag west and east all the way down from Ironton, OH. - Harlan, KY. I was on my VS and she was riding her Can-Am so asphalt was the order of the trip. We arrived on 421S and spent the night at the Comfort Inn. The next AM we headed straight for the “Little Shepherd Trail" and road the asphalt section to route 2010 south, 522 to Cumberland, 160 to Big Stone Gap. 23br to Norton and 760/72 to Kingsport, TN. Next Day we checked out the Tri-City area and headed home. 421N to 615N (Great road) Gas/Restroom stop on US19 then back on 614-71-82-664-616-615-601-602-80 into Haysi. Then 80 thru the Breaks and Elkhorn city. Then it was time to head home on 460/23 N to Ohio. Great time was had. The back country of this area is epic. This is a great way to relax and enjoy the area. Took some photos and video of the trip. B.

	Derek, I plan on making this. I just put 90/10 streety tires on the V-Strom for a trip with the wife so I will most likely bring the VS Beast so "The Romer" is not the only ADV Bike in the group. P.S. Like your Throttle Lock stuff.
- 
	No problem what so ever. You and the Romer are welcome to join in for as long as you like. We stay in motels, you can trail camp if you like. Iwill keep you updated.

	I don't normally ride it on the weekends with the high traffic. I would if I was riding mid pack with the O.R. Quad Gang for protection from head on collisions. If you are available on Friday the 21st. see below: Brian.
