SWing'R Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 Just have a alternative planned in case things are taking way longer than expected.I sometimes plan a route that ends up taking longer than I thought, if it doesI modifiy it on the fly.

MadMax33 Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 Quite a long ride you have there but 536 must be taken very carefully. Especially if your heading towards Rt.7. Coming from 7 it's a little less nerve-wracking though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MIKE53ALI Posted July 24, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 which twistie way can I take back up that maybe shorter?this main route would be THE route though....who would be down for this maybe.... saturday 7 / 30? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coming from 7 it's a little less nerve-wracking though.so I've read... thats why I planned it that way.and I'm taking into consideration the fact I'm coming from the northeast.... so total ride time is gonna be longer?how are the road conditions on this route?

NinjaDoc Posted July 24, 2011 Report Share Posted July 24, 2011 can we do sunday? but then again, i guess why not just ride to cbus on sunday for the meet and greet since both take pretty much the same time. Meet and greet happens only once in a while the ride we can do may be even the week after that. there is a small family owned riverside restaurant in powhattan point if u guys wanna check it out You guys go ahead on saturday if every ones down for it. I will join up some other day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MIKE53ALI Posted August 29, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2011 bumpin' it to tell everyone that this maybe goin' to the "rides and events" soonafter thinkin bout it through... just a heads up... I'm not gonna be flyin' through this route..... I welcome all who wants to ride, but never traveling these roads before is gonna keep the speeds somewhere between cruiser and insane. I would call the speed brisky but not risky... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LINK Posted August 30, 2011 Report Share Posted August 30, 2011 148 had a closed detour 2 weeks ago, I rode up to it and there is no getting around it, if it is still closed IDK, the road was completely gone, it looked like a bridge replacement.536 is not that fun since they replaced the speed bumps with tar patches, the bike gets very shifty when crossing them.Have a safe ride!
