ousley99 Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 (edited) Ok Folks, you want it, you got it.Next Saturday, the 20th, I will lead a group from Columbus to the River and Back.We will leave Columbus and head east to 78 and ride 78 all the way down to 536. Ride 536 down to the River so you can see the road and figure out where the gravel spots and hard turns are, then ride it backwards back to 78 for some real fun. Depending on the time we can either take a back way back to Columbus, or ride the highway which took me 2 hours in my car last Saturday with a trailer.The trip down there will take about 4 hours plus, plus rest stops, food, etc. This will be an entire day trip so plan on it.Anyone from north of Columbus is more than welcome to stay at my house Friday night and Saturday if you dont feel like riding home after all that. I have plenty of room.I don't need alternate route suggestions, I know there are hundreds of great roads in the area. This is a trip specificly for these roads. I'll make a map for you guys, but theres really only 3 roads soo... Meeting place is SkyLine off of Brice road and 70 on the east side. 9am. Leave at 9:30am Sharp.I better see you guys here that are all talking about wanting to ride this road!ANNNNND GEMMMMMMMMAAAAA pm me for directions to my house if you wanna crashHere is a map:http://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msa=0&msid=108313114231842932016.00046c8e4b271dbf64d9d&hl=en&ie=UTF8&ll=39.689752,-80.929413&spn=0.399984,0.615234&z=11Stops are marked on the map for gas and food etc Edited June 17, 2009 by ousley99 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harb67 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Dude' date=' we're talking almost 1000 miles in two days. Not saying it can't be done or that I haven't done it but I'm getting old. [/quote']Haha I know, I'm just giving ya shit I'm going to try to make both of em...if I wake up Sunday morning and my ass says no more seat time then I'll call it quits for the time being.

Harb67 Posted June 9, 2009 Report Share Posted June 9, 2009 Sunday's going to be the better ride. Eh won't know unless I do em both right? Plus, it's a bit too far out to really make a sound call on the weather for either day...it's not a bad idea to hedge my bets. Though if I had to pick I'd probably do the other one simply because I want to leave 'unknown newbie' status asap on CORE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
