cOoTeR Posted May 27, 2011 Report Share Posted May 27, 2011 A friend of mine and myself are going to do a triple nickel ride on the 5th of June. This is an open invite to all of OR.net. my plan is to leave Delaware around 9 then hit pickerington on the way meet near 70 and 204, if anyone is interested. Then slab it to zanesville hook up with 555 south to 550 into Athens stop for a late lunch then take 56 to circleville area and head north on 23 or 104 then back home.

jschaf Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 I'd go but I now have to sit out the season due to my 4 wheel tomfoolery. Have fun & watch out for the invisible gravel on 555. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have fun & watch out for the invisible gravel on 555.Did you get caught going 128 in a 45?If you need someone to ride your bike during your layoff it really wouldn't be a problem for me to help you out. I stay in N.R. more now than I stay in Elyria so it really wouldn't take me out of my way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blake1221 Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 I would be down for this but dont slab it all the way to zanesville. 37 or 78 are better routes to get to the nickel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cOoTeR Posted May 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 I was debating taking 204 to 22 into zanesville I don't really want to start that far south (78 37)on the nickel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blake1221 Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 the nickel doesn't get good until 37!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jschaf Posted May 28, 2011 Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 Did you get caught going 128 in a 45?Heel & toe driving into the entrance to my development in front of a hidden leo prompting heel to toe walking (.103 breathalizer = 1 beer too many). I'll be paying my debt to society now.If you need someone to ride your bike during your layoff it really wouldn't be a problem for me to help you out. I stay in N.R. more now than I stay in Elyria so it really wouldn't take me out of my way.That's a very generous offer. I'll let you known't.

cOoTeR Posted May 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 the nickel doesn't get good until 37!! I know but my friend is still pretty new to riding I'm going to break him in easy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cOoTeR Posted May 28, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2011 :dunno:How.many people that are planning on making it would prefer to hit the nickel at 37? It would mean moving the meeting place. Maybe Lancaster:dunno:? Suggestions? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InyaAzz Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 New to riding and you wanna break him in on 555? The blind corners and elevation changes are one thing...but the shitastic corner gravel in the top half is probably worse.I hope for his sake that you've prepared him for what he's gonna run into.

When we went lasta year he was timid and a little fearful so he didn't push the limits. But he's at the stage where he is getting used to it and a little too comfortable. If we were in a group I know he won't want to push his limits so I'd be comfortable jumping straight in the good parts of 555. But if its him and I I think he would try to dive in to fast if we went to the good parts off the rip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cOoTeR Posted May 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 I guess pretty new wasn't the best way to describe him. It's more fairly new. It's the stage that worries me most about new riders. When they think they know but they don't. Example, the reason I went down at gingerman last year. If that makes sense to yall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Punk Posted May 30, 2011 Report Share Posted May 30, 2011 I hope this ride ends well. Be careful' date=' guys.[/quote'] We will be there to chaperone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cOoTeR Posted June 1, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2011 Ok so I'm debating on meeting in Lancaster or pickerington. What would the people wanting to join this ride prefer? The roosters in Lancaster or catalfinos in pickerington? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
