It's a nice place to ride through.)Paine FallsI have some good routes to all of these places. Some of the roads are very much residential but scenic. Depending on the size of the group we can stick to state routes or back roads. It's up to the group as a whole!!!Discuss......

Lost1888 Posted October 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Here is a draft map I made a couple minutes ago. The map is fighting me between B,C and D to get the road I want. Either way it gives you an idea of what I'm thinking and the overall route to check out and give opinions.http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&source=s_d&saddr=Nelson+Ledge+Rd&daddr=Main+Market+Rd%2FUS-422+to:Main+Market+Rd%2FUS-422+to:Main+Market+Rd%2FUS-422+to:Rapids+Rd+to:Bass+Lake+Rd+to:Woodiebrook+Rd+to:Woodiebrook+Rd+to:Thwing+Rd+to:Sperry+Rd+to:OH-174%2FRiver+Rd+to:41.458502,-81.406807+to:41.431077,-81.392004+to:Chagrin+River+Rd+to:41.421997,-81.420699+to:Hawthorn+Pkwy+to:Hawthorn+Pkwy+to:Hawthorn+Pkwy+to:Gorge+Pkwy+to:Gorge+Pkwy+to:Tinkers+Creek+Rd+to:Riverview+Rd+to:Riverview+Rd+to:Riverview+Rd+to:Stanford+Rd&geocode=FWigdgIdzXAr-w%3BFW5FdwIdKroq-w%3BFTl4dwIdtwkq-w%3BFX-DdwIdWW0p-w%3BFVLLeAIdRq4p-w%3BFcHWeAIdj-ko-w%3BFXExegIdwc0o-w%3BFSoxegIdnpoo-w%3BFXlOegIdah8o-w%3BFYIAewIdjnwn-w%3BFYh9egIdpK4l-w%3BFUabeAIdqdQl-w%3BFSUweAIdfA4m-w%3BFTQveAIdvqQl-w%3BFa0MeAIdZZ4l-w%3BFSRxdwId6q4k-w%3BFaV2dwId3yAk-w%3BFYZ3dwIdg_0j-w%3BFbxcdwId018j-w%3BFR1TdwIdkz8j-w%3BFT06dwIdrN8i-w%3BFYubdgId4vEi-w%3BFd5PdgIdfhMj-w%3BFc3kdQIdvlIj-w%3BFe_SdQIdQtIj-w&hl=en&mra=ls&via=1,2,3,5,6,7,8,13,15,16,17,18,20,21,22,23&dirflg=h&sll=41.589192,-81.402168&sspn=0.018392,0.031972&ie=UTF8&ll=41.51886,-81.415558&spn=0.589173,1.023102&t=h&z=10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightRider Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 I'd be down next year...if i have a bike again...by then lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lost1888 Posted October 5, 2009 Author Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Next year will most likely be best for me also due to I'm getting surgery on my shoulder Oct.20. But if anyone want to go before my surgery I might be able to make it. Like always if the wife's not working or a Sunday ride since she rarely works on Sunday. I'm sure I will see some of the sights this year no matter what because it's my home turf. I might even be out this evening covering about half the route just because it's where I ride. At least we could get some ideas flowing on what, where, when and how. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottb Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 Well, since I had the day off, I went out to squires castle. I took a few pics of the place, just to act as a teaser. I also got a few pics of Chargrin river road south bound. On place we can add to the list is an ice cream place on 322 in the same parking lot as Chesterland Tavern. I wont name the place since I am not advertising, but the family owns it......I'll post up a few teaser pics shortly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't they close soon?There is also the Popcorn shop in Chagrin we will be stopping at anyways to see the falls. Also the ice cream shop at the end of the park next to Tinkers creek down the road from Bridalveil falls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timotheus Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 i have saturdays free......any saturday. the fall colors should be peaking within the next couple of weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottb Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 LOST, correct on Valley Villa....they might still be open, but will be closing soon for this year, but if we do this ride next year, they will be open. I think i am back to LA this week, the weekend of the 17th, I have a wine tour with friends ( I dont drink wine so i am the DD) and then the 24th I have a halloween party. So unless we do this on a Sunday?I am usually in Chagrin Falls on Sunday late afternoon,early evening on the bike anyways. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likwid Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 i would prefer a dry weekend just saying If folks are wanting to do this NOW I'm definitely down.... I'd be done to do this now AND in the spring/summer... would be REALLY cool to do it both times actually, get some fall pictures and summer pictures!Just throwing this out there, Saturday and Sunday are supposed to both be dry (Saturday more dry than Sunday) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fall this year for the leaves changing and again next spring for the winter melt to really get the effects of the waterfalls.Like I said earlier after the 20th. I will be most likely done riding for the season due to shoulder surgery. Someone else could set up a route and take this into the end of October or November. I just won't be there no matter what.i would prefer a dry weekend just saying Then it would have to be a last minute decision due to the unpredictability of the Autumn weather.

Kosmo Posted October 5, 2009 Report Share Posted October 5, 2009 I'm in....except some last minute emergency.....squeezing out the last miles from my back tire......they are not twisty worthy but will be OK for this kind of ride and the end of season before I get a set of Pilot Road 2s Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
