Canton Ride Part Deux

[Tony07R6]

10 would be awesome too. is that "too" early for peeps coming from the north?

I can make 10, that would actually work out nice and I could spend the rest of the day at the water park.

When: Saturday July 31st. Leaving promptly at 11am

Where: Meet at Speedway....2619 Cleveland Avenue Southwest...Canton, OH 44707

2hrs - 86 miles

Count me in. Looking forward to meeting you guys. I'll be on the 50th R1...bald headed asian guy.

[Bad324]

yea I could probably get there around 10

[CleaveTheGreat]

Have fun and be safe whores. I'll be on vacation.

[curby]

for those that don't know. Cleveland Ave. is Rt. 800

[fox_racing_guy]

I'm in, see you there.

[mojocho]

That is actually good to know for someone like me who doesn't know the area.

yea I could probably get there around 10

I can do 10 as well if that is what we are changing to.

[Bad324]

yea i went ahead and changed it to 10, hopefully that works for everyone. Like to make it work and be easy for ol curby since he will have the honor of being the fearless leader

funny thing is, the party wont be till 5:00. my bad. oh well, get done earlier... or ride longer...

and i think fox is more familiar with the 164 area. so leaders may switch unless i'm too slow for him...

[Bad324]

welp unless too many people say 10 is too early, I agree we just leave it there as I'm sure most won't mind. Doesn't matter to me really who is out front since I'll probably head up the back of the pack

[curby]

.... and it's written in stone... now we see who shows up.

[Kosmo]

I am watching........

What ever speed you go is fine with me from 30 MPH to 130 MPH, every group ride I've been on this year I've conned into leading so this 1 I plan on riding at the back. I'll even ride sweep so if anyone falls back I'll be able to get them back to civilization.

For any of you coming down from the North slow your ass down when you get to Portage RD, that is where the 55 MPH zone starts and Canton city has been running heavy patrols on the interstate. The have at least 1 BMW police bike so keep you eyes open for them. With Hall of Fame week about to kick off that wont help matters.

[curby]

thats fine with me Fox. back, middle front, doesn't matter to me. This definately a slower paced ride.

[Bad324]

I am watching........

......soon to be riding?

and of course the only day of the weekend there is scattered storms is Saturday:rolleyes:

go figure...

[speedytriple]

My 2 cents would be skip the ride down 800, that part of 800 runs thru a bunch of little towns and very straight. I would say just meet in bolivar on rt 212 and take it east from there.

[fox_racing_guy]

Could also ride Dueber Ave South from Canton, it's pretty decent road last time I was on it.

[curby]

let me do a map. i ride Dueber extension quite often and love it. it's a good little fix when i need it.

[Bad324]

son of a bitch....its now up to 50% rain saturday

[curby]

do we change to sunday?

[curby]

ok, revamped map... 90 miles, 2hrs 33 min

the boringest part of this route is 43 after waynesburg. but it looks like a very good route.

I'll let some other people chime in but I'm open for sunday so long as I'm back home by 4ish

[Tony07R6]

There's the same chance for a thunderstorm on Sunday as there is on Saturday. Accuweather isn't showing the rain/thunderstorms until much later in the day on Saturday (if you can believe weather reports at all nowadays).

hmm I gotta stop using weather.com then. It says 0% Friday, 50% Saturday, 0% Sunday
