Mcdowell Ride Aug 24

Recommended Posts

I haven't been on this one lately. I'm lazy. It's coming up on Aug 24.

 

Expect 300 to 500 bikes, small percentage not Harley, but usually reasonable.

 

Fully escorted, and non stop. Except for the mandatory beer stops.

I believe the year I went I had to give you a push start. Seems like I always get stuck pushing

And I thank you for that. It was much quicker than if I had done that. Again. After having failed the first bump start.

 

Did it again a few years ago, left the key on in a doctor's parking lot. Pushed up the driveway, down the street, into another parking lot with a long downhill. Got on and waited for road speed to build up, turned key back on and bumped in 2nd.

I remember that!  I went the following year, as well.  I don't think I'll be making it this year.  It's looking like this year the only action the bike is going to see is the 4.25 mile commute to and from work. :(

11:15a Met at Rooster's on Hamilton Rd

11:45a Depart

12:00 Short Ceremony performed by Whitehall Citizens Police Academy Alumni Association

4:00p Dinner (Knights of Columbus; proceeds to benefit KoC charities)

$8.00/person $5/Kids includes Chicken Breast, Salad, Baked Beans, & Dessert

We will be riding to the neighborhood for a ceremony, to the cemetery, Pop Ba Boos, & back to the Knights of Columbus.

---------------

When I went they had a buffet breakfast, but be early or nothing left. I think they will stop more than just one place in 4 hours. Often around and down through the outskirts of Lancaster and then East on some back roads before returning. Don't know the exact route this year.

Last time I went, they went down by Zanesville, then they made way back to Heath for the finish.
