JCMathis Posted May 26, 2017 Report Share Posted May 26, 2017 Since we had to cancel the May ride, We will do our June ride on the 17th. Meet in the NW corner of the parking lot of Iron Pony at 9:00 am depart at 9:30 am. All are welcome to join us, nobody is left behind. We ride a spirited pace but wait at all route turns. This ride is going to be a long one, just over 300 miles heading out to Beallsville Diner for lunch then heading south through Marietta before returning home. Beallsville Diner does not accept plastic so bring cash for a great lunch. https://ridewithgps.com/routes/20696389 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCMathis Posted June 9, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2017 Since we did end up doing the May ride, the route on the initial post is incorrect. We will be doing this route https://ridewithgps.com/routes/21937497 . We will get back down to the Marietta area later in the year. Lunch will be at the Blue Bell Diner in McConnellsville. We will meet in the NW corner of the Iron Pony parking lot at 9:00 and depart at 9:30. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max power Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I would like to jump in on this ride also but since you're coming close to my house I will wait for you guys and fall in line and in lithopolis. If you would like, I could take you some much better back roads than going down lithopolis road and through Lancaster. That's a long straight boring frustrating piece of riding right there. not trying to tell you where to ride or anything but if you would like some alternatives to that let me know.not trying to tell you where to ride or anything but if you would like some alternatives to that let me know. @marlboro man you in?

There's no deals gap caliber routes in the area, but I could definitely route you around Lancaster on some decent back roads Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max power Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Looks like I may be out also. Three of my four vehicles took a giant crap yesterday and I need to do some wrenching Saturday. If I can get it all done tonight I will post up and meet you in route Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCMathis Posted June 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 What is so special about it that only Brooklyn had it? Is it lowered so you can get in it without a step ladder? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCMathis Posted June 16, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 I edited the route slightly to try and miss more of downtown Lancaster as well as coming into McConnelsville slightly different. If you are coming, the gas stop will be at 98 miles so come with a full tank ready to ride. It is going to be warm tomorrow so stay hydrated.

JustinNck1 Posted June 19, 2017 Report Share Posted June 19, 2017 I think I may have passed you guys Saturday. It looked like the lead bike was a Tiger riding 2-up. Glad you guys had a good ride. Weather was beautiful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
