jbot Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 hai gaizi have my bike in columbus temporarily, and i'm headed down this weekend to do some other stuff, but should have time to ride either Sat or Sunday. Preferably sunday early morning, since i'd like to try to take my friend along (he's sort of new to this) and that's when he's free.I'd like to ride around hocking hills or where ever there are good roads. i'd like to be back in cbus by around 5pm. I'd guess we would want to leave cbus by around 8am to give us enough time to get to the good stuff.i don't know the roads out there, so this is sort of a "ride leader wanted" type post. You can go as fast as you want, just wait for us at the turns. Sometimes i'll be up to mess around, maybe even go to 2nd base, but mostly i'll be hanging back to make sure my friend is alright. If no one wants to lead, but want to ride, i'll just look at some route suggestions and do the best I can. Keep in mind, i'm towing a new rider, so i'll be taking it easy. again, don't let that stop you from riding ahead and doing your thing.Let me know if anyone is interested, or if there is already a ride that I just didn't know about.

obesityrules Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 i am planning on a quick sat morning ride; route Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWing'R Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 I could be down for a early morning Sunday ride. Haven't checked the weather, I think its supposed to cool down abit this weekend.I prefer Sundays and the earlier the better so this could work out. I'm not the best tour guide for Hocking but I go thru there enough that I could probably make up a route.Will check back here later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jbot Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 it's good when it's clean... which it rarely is. but it's REALLY good when it is. i think they paved parts of it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutch Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 I was on it early this year from 78 north and it had lots of gravel and big ass pot holes... maybe we could set something up Sunday where we ride down 800 and back up 555 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt_Buell Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 I think I might be up for either day. Is this a ride to leave the passenger at home, I like solo rides when they are longer, it means I will only get to hear from other riders to slow down not my wife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 ok. wanna do 555 or is that too out of the way? Could hit that for the road back or the the way to 78 and bring 83 back555 sucksNot north of 78 it dosentit's good when it's clean... which it rarely is. but it's REALLY good when it is. i think they paved parts of it? Yes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWing'R Posted July 7, 2010 Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 Nice tags jbot . Haven't run 555 on my FZ6R yet. The conditions of that road fluctuate so much though.I'm down for anything early Sunday. 1000RR and Tarr can make up the route and lead, that way I can ride in the middle somewhere or back and run my gopro (til I run out of hd and batt life) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbot Posted July 7, 2010 Author Report Share Posted July 7, 2010 i agree about 555. if it was kept 1/3 as nice as them roads down in TN/NC, it could be a tourist trap lol.anyway, if you guys don't mind me tagging along with newb friend in tow, that would be cool. if the wait becomes too unbearable, feel free to break off. i pretty much just need a route and i can usually find my way around.my tags are consistent, if anything lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
