Zoner1320 Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 1. Route complete.. Will be posting route today in some format. In an effort to minimize dirt/gravel riding and allow some slack in scheduling some of these bridges will require us to double back so expect a few occasions where we arrive at a bridge cross over or whatever and end up going back the way we came to stay on pavement. Total route is still under 80miles. there is also room to trim out a bridge or 2 if time becomes an issue.2. Since it's been brought up.. I have a small list of things I'd like to cover at the riders meeting. There are some bridges that are going to require a little organization to safely get everyone across and handle potential traffic situations.. It was one thing when it was 4 or 5 people but with the potential of 15-20 bikes I've taken some time to be a little anal about the plans. I will appologize now if I come across as a control freak or jerk.. I have the best of intentions and I promise anything I have to say should not make the ride any less fun.. I'd rather go overboard with some of this stuff than be unprepared and put any of my new friends at risk.3. We have accomodations for guests for anyone who would like to ride out to youngstown Friday or Saturday evening.. (especially those coming from central Ohio OsuMJ, GSXR750Girl, etc..) couch folds to a bed for 2 in our living room and single bed, in the basement which is almost furnished to be a studio apartment. Even tents and sleeping bags for the truly hardcore..lol Free parking of bikes inside my garage. PM me for free reservations. Oh and there's free coffee and beer..haha4. by chance does anyone happen to run Scala Q2 headsets? We just picked up a set and it'd be ideal if someone else had one so we could communicate in the group.. No biggie if not.I have Scala Love them awsome head sets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottb Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 I do not have a headset. This should be a great ride Saturday.Hey LOST, what time and where on Vrooman road did you want to meet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armith Posted September 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 The forecast doesn't seem to have changed much.. temps got a degree or two warmer but still a 40% chance of rain. I'm committed now rain or shine.. Barring flooding rain or severe weather I'm going thru with the ride.. I respect those who opt out.. I can understand where cool wet conditions could ruin some fun and enjoyment of the ride.Offer still stands for anyone who wants to bunk down at my place Friday and/or Saturday.. Just let me know by tomorrow night so we have some time to prep and so I can get you directions.This is going to be a great ride! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OsuMj Posted September 30, 2009 Report Share Posted September 30, 2009 This sounds like a nice ride and I wanted to go, but I've got too much work/homework/other stuff that needs to be tended to to spend 6 hours on commute :-/ Hope you guys have fun.

conn-e-rot Posted October 1, 2009 Report Share Posted October 1, 2009 I think I'm going to pass on this one after all the rain we've had I care to deal with all the muddy roads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armith Posted October 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 There shouldn't be that much mud to contend with as I've eliminated as much of the unpaved goodness as possible. But its cool.. If you happen to change your mind, this thing is 100% a go.. whether its 2 bikes or 20 bikes I'm ready.. Mother nature can kiss my ass.. She'll have all winter to kick it during my commute thru the snowbelt.Drop me a PM if you want my cell.. if you want to join up in Jefferson later in the day even..
