Hailwood Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 Well, the forecast for Saturday is still looking good, so I'm going to post this up. My guess is that the chance of us getting more weekends with 60+ degree temps is pretty low, so I want to get in one final decent ride to close out the season.Here is the route I was planning:Link to Google MapsMeet at the Speedway on 83 in Millersburg by 10:45, with wheels up at 11:00. This route isn't terribly long and should put us back into Millersburg by 3:00 so everyone should be able to be home before dark, but is still enjoyable enough to make the trip South worthwhile, IMO.I am planning a conservative pace for this ride. The roads will be cold and I'd really prefer to end the season on a high note, so I'm going to be taking it easy, especially on 555 which can be dirty at times. In general I plan on 70ish in the straights and conservative in the corners. I will pass on a double yellow if I feel it's safe. The most important thing is to ride your own ride - we will wait at all stops for the group. Likewise if there are folks that want to go faster, they can feel free to do so.

NinjaDoc Posted November 8, 2012 Report Share Posted November 8, 2012 If I get off from work its time to spend with family I am trying to manipulate a stay around hockings and I might be able to squeeze a ride in central area for few hours at least one of the two day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Z. Heimer Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Going to have to bow out. Got home after dark yesterday after a romp with Doc. The cold has flared up my arthritis and I don't think I could put in 8 hours of seat time today. Enjoy the day guys and speed safely.
