Northern KY "Legends of the Fall Ride" 10 AM Sunday 10/21/2012

[Bubba]

Posting a link to another LocalRider event--not mine--happening this Sunday. If you're near Cincinnati or live in SW Ohio/northern KY, think about riding with us. There aren't many good riding days left in 2012, so you don't want to miss out on this one!!!

This route won't be like this past Wednesday's 'Colors' DS ride; it'll be keeping to the smoother twisties; pace will be 'spirited' (I love that term ) but prolly max out at 15-20 over SL, so not gonzo crazy. Tentative plan is to start riding east and south from the I-75 corridor, eat lunch in Williamstown then head west and ride 36, 22, 227 into Stamping Ground, then back north on 368 and 607 and eventually end up in Rabbit Hash. Approx mileage is 150-200 for the loop, and ride time is approx 4.5 - 5.5 hrs, not including stops. All types of bikes are welcome.

Start location: Steak N' Shake, 450 Mount Zion Road, Florence, Ky (I-75 south, exit 178, turn left off the ramp on Mount Zion Rd)

Meet-up @ 10 AM; kickstands up @ 10:30 sharp.

Return location: Rabbit Hash, KY (NOTE: For riders unfamiliar with the area, there will be a leader to return you to the I-275 Petersburg exit in NKY.)

I just rode some of this route last weekend...368,607,227 and 127.

Here's a couple pics of 227...

For those who don't know 227,these top two pictures give you a good taste of the 18 miles of 227 below 22? down to 368.

The western section of 607 between 127 and 227 was beautiful...

If I was closer I would definitely be on this ride.I had 706 miles in going over and checking out these great roads last weekend.

For those who follow rideohio,sorry about double posting these pics.

Drc: Thx for the plug! And great pics, BTW. These roads are some of the best northern KY has to offer. You won't be disappointed, as long as we can stay ahead of the Sunday morning church folk....

When you came down, did you ride your FJR or the KLR? I usually take my Wee, but the rear tire is shagged, so I'll prolly take the Feejer and try to keep from wearing the peg feelers down to nubs. Looks like a great week for scootin'...
