PhilS Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Hello again:As was buried in the Ride #1 thread, anyone have any favorite rides/roads/areas/places to go/places to eat that they would like to set up for the next ride? All going like normal, this will be on Saturday May 15 leaving from the same place as last time with a 9AM arrival and a 9:30AM launch.Put the thoughts out there and we'll get it planned then post it in the events calendar again.Thanks to all who showed up on April 17 - that was very cool. We'll get a broom truck out front next time and ask the sun to work a bit harder!!!!Hope you're not too sore this morning Rick..........

chevysoldier Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 If Rick goes, we need to stay away from Kershockten. Doesn't matter to me where we go as long as I can ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obesityrules Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 start with 33 to 374:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilS Posted April 18, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Yep - I like that 56 ride to and from Athens...........and I've never been to Jimbos. Sounds fun to me as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 33 is too straight and boring, we'd probally do a 256 204 674 to get down there. We try to avoid the droan of long straight rides if at all possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrocket04 Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Hocking Hills would be fun. As would a trip to Jimbos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
obesityrules Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 i have done both and found 33 to be a faster route to the good roads, 256/204 is all straight until you drop down 664 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
600ZZ4eb Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 Yeah, 374 is bout 20 mins down 33 so it wouldn't take long. 328 was good down in hocking as well and I've been wanting to take 56 to athens but hvvnt yet. Heard there was agood pizza shop n athens thatg won the world pizza comptetion a couple years ago.....disclaimer- I've never been there jus going off what I've heard.....

600ZZ4eb Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 I vote OH-536 and OH-26 Down by Marietta again!Can't forget 255 down there as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Punk Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 255 sucks, it is very dangerous and dirty all the time. If it were me I wouldn't lead a group ride on the road. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted April 18, 2010 Report Share Posted April 18, 2010 I'm gonna have to agree with that, not group friendly .... or should I say ego friendly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilS Posted April 19, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2010 Well Hocking it is. John is working on the route now..................more details later, but you can count on this:Saturday May 15 -Calvary Chapel of Columbus 6075 East Livingston Avenue 9AM arrival gassed up and ready to ride9:30 launchSome details are working out, but the route should look something like this:195 mile round trip down 664, 180, 678, 374, 664 again, to 93 to 50 MacArthur. Then 50 and 278 to Nelsonville, then 78, 13, and back to the start via 204 and 256. It'll be about 2 hours/90 miles to MacArthur where we get gas, an hour or less to Nelsonville for eating maybe??, then another 2 hours back home.More details to come............
