Recommended Posts

Okay so looks like I'm gonna lead a small ride to/in/around Hocking SUNDAY.

As of this posting, no official route has been planned, I will work on it later today.

Meeting at 10am in the NorthWest corner of the Westland Mall parking lot,

near the Bob Evans. Broad & 270 on Westside.

There are a couple gas stations right there if you need to top off.

Right now it's just me and Dying Shadow.

First ride of the season, nothing crazy, moderate pace, couple three hours or so??

Something going on down there tomorrow?

I was wondering about that too. Warm weather = lots of Harleys (no offense Hoblick :p) and cars.

I'm not looking for a really fast ride though so it shouldn't be too bad.

Remember daylight savings tonight

Yep. It's hard nowadays to not remember, since the cable box and cell

phones change on their own, really only leaves me like two clocks to set :p

@ Dying Shadow... working on a route plan now. Gonna head into hocking

on 56 and come back from there on 33 with a zigzag pattern up/down thru

the whole area. Will post the details once I finish it.

parking lot out front to the west of the Bob Evans entrance off Broad.

4 bikes I think :o , should be a nice day!

What's your ETA for your fuel up at 278/33?

Oh god, I'm absolutely no good at judging times! Depends on when we roll

out, traffic on 23, 56 etc :(. If you look at the miles I listed for each leg

you can speculate on a rough time probably but I make no promises :o
