CleaveTheGreat Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 So what's the plan here? Anyone still riding Sunday? It's gonna be a little chilly but I'm still down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tpoppa Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 (edited) Since this ride doesn't appear to be happening, how about this...**Updated** 9:30a Meet at Bolivar DQ (US77 & OH212), wheels rolling by 10a. Return to Bolivar between 3-4. The loop (Bolivar to Bolivar) is 250 miles or so depending some route options.The pace wil be brisk, the roads will be curvy. All will be riding within their limits, geared up, and no one will be left behind, etc. From Cleveland, I usually slab on 77 to Bolivar, it takes about 1:10. For those who prefer not to slab, you can take 83>250>212>Bolivar, that takes 1:30--1:40.It will be chilly in the morning...we live in Ohio.

twisted12 Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 That sounds like it would work to tpoppa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InyaAzz Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 OMG I so wanna...but ...it ...will...be...fucking...cold... at ...7:30AM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doomking Posted October 2, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I like that idea also, if any of the cosh guys can't help.Ynia ...bit cold in the morning ....I'll wear long johns or under armor under the gear and I'll be warm.Tony that sounds good, but I think we should avoid the interstate going down there....it will be more fun going the 83S way. Also Tony can we delay the start by 1 hr? meet at Circle K 8:30 and @ bolivar around 10- 10:30 .....does that sound reasonable? we should have plenty time, plus I think rslocum is thinking about coming and he lives in Painsville.Just a thought....

InyaAzz Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 A later start would be better...give the roads a lil time to warm up. My testicles would definitely appreciate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rslocum Posted October 2, 2009 Report Share Posted October 2, 2009 I'm game for whatever time if the weather is nice. 50 degrees and rain sucks. Not even my battery powered nut warmers help. If we do rte 250 we'll have to warn any new people about the infamous 180 degree switchback that bit me in the ass in June. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CleaveTheGreat Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 TPoppa, you mind pm'ing me a general idea of your se Ohio route? I may need to break off early to make it back in time for some prior commitments. I know se Ohio relatively well and I'd like to have an idea in my head of where I could break off if need be.

Tpoppa Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 The morning forecast for Cleveland is looking iffy (30%), but the radar looks clear. Further south the forecast looks pretty good.If it's dry in the morning, I'll be in Bolivar at 9:30. Who's planning to show? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doomking Posted October 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 I am still planning on coming down there Tony. If for some reason the morning looks wet than we have to make a decision tomorrow on what to do.Few other guys expressed interest in coming early in the week, but they have not posted any definite intention yet. Ynia is out, I think because too cold in the morning. A month from now we all be wishing of days like today.If it's gonna be the two of us, do you want to still ride or call it off ?I am going to ride either way, not so early if you decide not to go anymore, but maybe later in the day with couple of guys from work if they make up their mind. One of them mentioned to go to the Mohican reservation via route 3, which is not too bad of a ride.So we'll have to wait and see.....

I'm going to have to make the call in the morning. Just post up in the morning if you guys are going to abort or what not. Forecast looks good for the south but not so good for the NE.

CleaveTheGreat Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 Looks like I'll be dry in Akron. I'll check back in the morning and if you guys are still going I'll see ya in Bolivar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doomking Posted October 3, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 (edited) Tony as for right now seems I am the only one coming from the west side, unless someone else comes and then we'll meet at Circle K, would you like to meet at Roush motor sport in Medina which is at Rt. 18 and I 71 and than ride together the rest of the way to Bolivar?Rslocum can also join us there since it's right off I 271 if he's coming that way...How's that sound for you RS?How about it Cleave? would you rather meet at Roush and ride together down to Bolivar? Just some ideas..weather is going to be a carbon copy of today, with lake effect crap, just in NEO. South should be OK.

Tpoppa Posted October 3, 2009 Report Share Posted October 3, 2009 I'm gonna slab on 77 to get to Bolivar. It'll add an hour for me to head west to take 83 south. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
