JCMathis Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 (edited) I know this is late notice but I am planning on pre-riding the Brian Kinney Benefit ride tomorrow morning. I will be at the McDonalds in Sunbury on 36 just west of 3 (Sunbury Road) at 8:15 and depart at 8:30. If anyone is up early and wants to ride come on out.

JCMathis Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 That will be early for you but come on out. If you want to you could ride it backwards and meet up with me somewhere along the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hutch Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I might see if I run into you somewhere I'm meeting someone on 79&586 at 10:45 but might ride a little before then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutch Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 If you see this before you head out I was looking at you route and when you get to 13 and turn right then turn left on waterworks road. The waterworks road area is all under construction. I have not been by it but hered its a mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCMathis Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I am sitting at the McDonalds right now and it is raining. I was hoping to stay easy of it but that didn't happen.I will wait it out for a little bit and then put on the rain gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The waterworks road area is all under construction. I have not been by it but hered its a mess.It's just a few hundred feet where they're working on the bridge. From Hollander St., almost to Horns Hill Rd, which isn't far. Not sure if they've finished it yet, or not. We rode through there to meet up for Vroddave's ride.

JCMathis Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 Wow, I did not realize there were so many of you that were afraid of getting wet. Ben (Danballa) showed up at the McDonalds and we headed north. Within minutes we were ahead of the rain. The route is a good one with the exception of a road closure in Fredricktown. Took a quick detour and we were back on route. When we were about 10 miles down 79 we found the rain again. Stopped and put the rain jacket on and we were off again. After about 10 minutes the rain was done again and it looked like we were behind it now.Total time was 3 hours and all in all, the route was great. Looking forward to the ride in 3 weeks.

MidgetTodd Posted May 31, 2010 Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 I headed out to run into to you. It looked clear I got two miles up 586 and ran into a monsoon. Turned around, returned home, clothes in dryer, Mt.Dew and cookies in hand. I fail miserably, I'm sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCMathis Posted May 31, 2010 Author Report Share Posted May 31, 2010 If I would not have had my rain gear with me I would have done the same. Actually if Ben would not have showed up I would have probably went home as well but it turned out to be a good ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
