Is anyone gonna be around and riding tomorrow afternoon? I'm off work @ 3 tomorrow and will have a few hours to kill before the wife gets home. Of course this all depends on the weather too.

[Bad324]

I probably won't be home until 4ish at the earliest if the boss isn't here

Is there any enjoyable riding up north here? I work in Hudson. I don't think I want to make the trek down south this week to "try" last weeks route again on my own, plus Curby doesn't want to give his wife a sad.

i guess that would depend on your skill level and what you find enjoyable. Since I'm noobsauce still I can find decent enjoyment in the Brecksville Metroparks, Peninsula/Akron Valley area and even up towards Bedford Reservation and Chagrin River Rd

[Tony07R6]

Ya know, I don't really know where to rank my skill level. I've been riding for about 5 years, but it has mostly just been commuting and such and not much twisty experience. I still find enjoyment in riding Riverview Rd and that area, but I'd like to try some new scenery.

Here is a pretty standard route I do when I stay close to home. I also tend to head a bit further south and hit Sand Run Pkway west to north on 21 and hang a right on Yellow Creek back to Riverview.

I am out this week, have pending chores, as I will be out all day long at Nelson Sat-Sun...will be long days for me....have fun guys and and be safe.....

It's probably a good idea to have a quick riders meeting..discuss...

1. General recaps.

2. No keep up, I have balls too, game.

3. If you think your are being held up how to signal and safely pass...keep your ego at bay, this is not racing....just let the advanced riders enjoy lil more of the road at their liking.

4. Stop at regular stop signs/gas stations to keep the group together....

5. Any other....issues

[hollywood3586]

Matt and i will go on the route ^^ looks like fun..

definitely! Half these roads are pretty "slow" and if I would have to lead since I know the area the speed would not be all that noteworthy anyway The good part is they are usually not roads that are patrolled

[Tony07R6]

What time can you guys make it Holly? I'll probably ride a bit when I get off @ 3. I can't be gone too long, don't want to give the wife a mad by leaving her with Nicholas while I'm out having fun.

Bad, I'm fine with "not noteworthy" speeds. I give enough money to the insurance company as it is with all my policies, I don't need to increase that figure with an accident/ticket.

[Bad324]

I'll try to do my best to get home by 4/430. I'll tweak the map better with a different starting point since were all south. I'll probably wait til tomorrow morning to post up an actual thread since I really won't know what time I can get out of here until then
