  5. NEO to SEO Sunday 4/12 Ride

    in Events

    Posted

    I'm really not familiar with using google maps that way or I would. 

     

    The big highlights in scioto county 125, 140, 93, 522, 650, 335, 139, woods ridge (chip seal), Greenbriar rd, Jackson fork rd, and if you feel like venturing into Pike county 335 continues into Pike and gets very interesting. 327 is also good. Park service roads (paved) in Shawnee state forest have some amazing views and turns, Pike forest too.  

     

    As for Lawrence county; 141, 775, 217, 218, 243, 650, 93, 522, 790 (my favorite road in existence.), Hannan Trace rd, Basically any paved county road here is awesome. 

     

    Lawrence co = low traffic very little patrolling EXCEPT in the Hanging rock area. HRPD has one of the highest citation rates in the country. Roads are usually clear. A few tricky places with badly marked signage. 5/6 20 degree hairpins. 

    Scioto county: 125, 522, woods ridge, greenbriar, jackson fork, 335, park rds are all pretty clear. the rest are moderately trafficked. Roads are USUALLY pretty clear. 

     

     

    I tried to get a ride assembled last summer but no bites. Here in the next month or so I will put together an other one. And hopefully have things mapped out by then lol

  10. Chinese company buying Pirelli

    Q3's are awesome and a ridiculous deal with the rebate. The only downside is I only manage to get 15-2000 miles out of a set. I went through 5 or 6 sets last year. Avons are great. If their equivalent outlasts the dunlops and are a good price, I wouldn't be against giving them a try. 

  13. Reputable Buell mechanics in North East Ohio?

    Lol. I have an 1125. Its really not that complicated. It seems a little ridiculous but until you completely tear it down yourself it doesn't make much sense. It really is a joy to work on.

    My most reputable mechanic is myself. I make it a point to learn and maintain everything I own. I suggest you grab a manual of the interwebs and do it yourself. There are a few dedicated buell forums where you can get all the help you need. The xb is a simple bike and a good place to start learning. It's a rewarding experience that saves you much in the long run.

  14. Deep South/ South Eastern Epic Ride Meet up 5/16/15

    Hey guys. Tried this last year and had no bites but I figured I would offer the same thing again this year. This is for the South central/South Eastern Ohioans (or north eastern Kentuckians, Northern W.Virginians), that wish to ride to the epic ride in a group. Seeing as little of interest I had last year, route and time is flexible depending on interest. I don't mind to stop or meet anywhere along the way. Pace will be quite spirited depending on the weather and other riders comfort. It will be a good warm up ride for the remainder of the day!
