PhilS Posted May 15, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 Hey there:What a great day indeed!! I was becoming more and more comfortable in those turns, but have a ways to go "riding my own ride" as they say. i was REAL GLAD no one got busted by that Sheriff on 78! I can imagine you front half group must have been 80+ when he passed........but, he never turned around.And...........Woo Hoo as well on the no crashes (except for the flying wheelchair) and only one fuel starvation casualty!!! Doh!! Amazing how someone had instant lawnmower gas on the spot. You were taken care of in the middle of nowhere.........go figure.Really looking forward to June. My band is playing some charity gig on the day so depending on the time-frame the band plays will determine my involvement in that ride.Great day.See ya next time,Phil Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jporter12 Posted May 15, 2010 Report Share Posted May 15, 2010 Thanks for the great ride everyone!Today was my first time riding Hocking, and it was awesome! I'm just surprised at how well my little 250 and my abilities did with keeping up! I even made it to Newark to visit with some relative that are in from MD!Oh yeah, I'm still a bit at the Hobbit comments Ben! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
