JCMathis Posted August 31, 2011 Report Share Posted August 31, 2011 Ok guys, we are going to do something slightly different this month. We will not be stopping for lunch until the ride is complete. The route is 220 miles and lunch will be at the Nutcracker Diner in Pataskala. With the route and no lunch stop we should be sitting down to eat around 2pm.As always, meet at Calvary Chapel of Columbus located at 6075 E. Livingston Ave. Plan on being there with a full tank by 8:30 and we will depart at 9:00.http://ridewithgps.com/routes/657808 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilS Posted September 4, 2011 Report Share Posted September 4, 2011 Wow - nice route John. This looks like a great ride. I like the idea of eating afterwards and keeping the riding pace going from start to finish. Gas full at start, gas up again in McConnelsville at 104 miles, then ride to the finish at Nutcrackers which is 115 miles later. You're a genius.

JCMathis Posted September 11, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 One week away. Praying for good weather and a great group of riders. May be the last group ride of the year for us. October will be hit and miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MidgetTodd Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Me too since Ive had my bike out 3 maybe 4 times this year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokey Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Nutcracker is a neat place and has good food..........and there is no excuse to stop riding in OHIO, if it is above freezing and the roads are clean "git er done"! Have fun and be safe, I hate group rides otherwise I would consider attending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Cold roads are not a good match for the pace we ride. Warm tires warm roads are a must. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MidgetTodd Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 And Im a sissy, dont like riding in cold, rain, dark, hot, traffic, freeways, ect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pokey Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Cold roads are not a good match for the pace we ride. Warm tires warm roads are a must.Nah.........you have plenty of traction when the temps drop. Just admit you are a fair weather rider and get it over with.

MidgetTodd Posted September 11, 2011 Report Share Posted September 11, 2011 Fair weather rider..I did state that, and everybody that knows me already knows that. My statement on the cold tires and roads stands and if you would ride with us once you would understand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everybody planning to ride balls out fast??There's always someone that hangs back! Nobody gets left behind, they don't continue on until everyone is accounted for. I might be making it out for this now, I won't know until later today, it depends on how today goes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
