My bike is looked over and ready to go. Leaving my house sunday morning @ 3:45am!!!  Too excited!!!

See you in the AM and safe travels!

[Wolfman1]

Glad it was postponed, nasty line of storms moving across the entire state.  Most of us would have been caught by this one. Weather is looking fantastic tomorrow!

I think I'll do this if nobody minds a newbie signing up at the last minute. I haven't been following this because I was planning on the Saturday evening track day at Mid-Oh.

This would be my first OR ride but I've done plenty of group rides before, including the occasional CORE ride back in the day. Med or Med-Fast would suit me fine if they aren't too full already.

Cool! My only issue is I tweaked my hand at work this past week and it's still a little sore. I might have to bail and slab it back home if it starts hurting too bad

Aye, you should be fine. We can trade war stories at the met, but I'm riding with a very sore Left knee. pain/soreness/tingling/numbness in my Left hand (been so for the last year). I wont let that get in the way of my riding!

 

Some days the soreness/pain is less, some days its more than normal. Just happens with age! I just hope that all that does NOT get so bad that I cannot RIDE when I'm in my 50,60,70's!!!

[Wojo72]

Have fun folks.  I'm screwed because my son has an event at 4pm.  No way that I'll be back in time to pick him and get him there. 

[DAC]

Not gonna make this one. Ride safe everyone.

[Wolfman1]

See all you hooligans in the AM.  Bike is prepped and ready to go.  Be safe everyone!

Wife is off tomorrow so it looks like I'll be 2 up pushing me back to medium group I'm guessing. 

Better be here to see this. Her riding anymore is like a unicorn sighting.

Can an we do name tags next time?

I didn't say hi to what and didn't even realize my ol buddy Tom (strictly street) was the dude on the GPz.

Every time we do one of these things I realize who people are well after the event. 

[Shoop]

I'm home and finished dinner. Max - you can have the award. 

The ride and the weather were GORGEOUS!  While I'm sorry that some of you had to drop out, and I'm not looking forward to work tomorrow, it seems like an excellent decision to have postponed. 

Thank you for coordinating this, Derek.

It was fun chasing you up 33   Kinda tough to tell who is who with a helmet on.

I missed ridding back with the Dayton group. Got into the double circles and lost sight of them, thought they went up 33. Afterwards remembered they did 33a. Ah well, still a great day for a ride.

Any news on on the triumph that went down? Hope the guy is ok. From the talk he went down pretty hard.
