scottb Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I'll be working at the Honda plant for a days the Week of Dec 28th. Anybody work or live near there? Seems that there are plenty of hotels and places to eat in Marysville. Any places to avoid? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
longbrake_00 Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 I don't work for honda, but I am usually through Marysville once a week or some on my way to Columbus, and there is plenty of food, and hotels down the main strip. There is a honda dealer over right off the main road if you want to check some bikes out. You can hit up Josh in the parts department he is a friend of mine that I ride with a good bit. There is a bostons there that has good food as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopLeft Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 First 2 places that jump to mind: Benny's Pizza on Columbus Avenue in Marysville and G & R Tavern in Waldo (not exactly close, but stellar made-to-order sandwiches First 2 places that jump to mind: Benny's Pizza on Columbus Avenue in Marysville and G & R Tavern in Waldo (not exactly close, but stellar made-to-order sandwiches 740-726-9685). Milford Center has a couple small wing places that get rave reviews (from hungry Hondroids looking to unwind at 1am nightly...). Also, the Subway just East of 33 is known for some serious stacking of toppings on subs. Be careful with your driving up there! Both Union County Sheriffs Office and State Troopers (post is just down the road from the plant!) aren't shy. And with Honda on holiday shutdown, none of us will be around as decoys. Pickings will be slim for them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thegame Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Work there and live in town. Whatcha need to know? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottb Posted December 13, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Thanks for the input on food and heads up on driving. I know the plant is on shutdown/vacation. Google maps shows alot of places to eat, just looking for any places food wise to avoid. I am not sure who i'll be working with at the plant.One company I worked at was a union shop, which meant I was not allowed to touch any of the equipment, but had to "direct" the workers on what to do. I had an electrician and a mechanical employee with me. Any item that needs to be unbolted, was the mechanical guys job and anything that has to be unplugged or needed a meter reading was the electrician's job. Looks like no motorcycles are produced there? Only the Element and CR-v? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedytriple Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 I took him on a bunch of core rides then he ended up doing more riding then me last year. He totaled his bike on his first ride with us down on 556, all cosmetic, fixed it up nice as new and now has 2 2007 675's. let me ride one on a 600 mile day last fall. He is a good rider now. pretty quick also. He dont post much on the web but does ride alot with core down south of canton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottb Posted December 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 He seems like a good guy, and will be a great,needed addition to our crew. Now that i sold my sport bike, I only have my 1982 GS 850. We will have to try to get a few Lincoln rides plan this summer. Our boss also rides, his one bike is a Warrior.

speedytriple Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Well all I have left is my old speedtriple. I dont do much city rides anymore, only ride down south east. I dont get out to ride to much so when I do they are long country road rides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGTL GRL Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 My husband works there. Well, the former motorcycle plant actually. He did work in manufacturing.We live in Marysville.Benny's is good. Conways Barbeque has 50cent wings all day on Sundays that are pretty good. Mangos which is over by Walmart has good Mexican food. Happy hour is fantastic with half priced appetizers and great beer prices. The staff there are awesome. That place is in a strip mall next to Walmart.YES.. BE CAREFUL IF YOU DECIDE TO DRINK/DRIVE or even JUST DRIVE.. the cops here are jerks! It's basically copland around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGTL GRL Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Places to eat, try mango's in the plaza by walmart. I didn't know you go to Mango's too. Love that place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottb Posted December 14, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 Thanks for the heads up. Knowing that I need my license for this job and to enjoy motorcycles, I will only have one drink while i am out IF i know i will be at one place for awhile, or i can walk from the hotel to dinner. Usually, I'll get a 6 pack and bring it back to the room, if i wll be in the room for a few days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DGTL GRL Posted December 14, 2009 Report Share Posted December 14, 2009 I'm assuming you'll be walking distance to Conway's and Roosters since that is basically where all our hotels are located right off of 33/36.Conway's doesn't have much for atmosphere, but it is a great place for food and reasonable drink prices.You'll also be really close to the place that 'the game' mentioned above. I've heard mixed reviews on that place so I can't confirm if it's any good or not since I've not been there personally.Roosters has lots of eye candy, but seriously the chicks share brain cells there. It's annoying if you prefer your server's iq to be more then their shoe size. Food is alright there.. it's not as good as other places.You can probably get away with Mangos if you're not wasted or out too awfully late. You still have to drive back (3 miles?) to the hotel.
