2011 SE Ohio Fall Ramble

[scrapedup]

Hey Guy's,

Thought I'd post up. Been 2 weeks and got my stitch's out today, still looks pretty nasty but I did manage to ride some of the route this past Sat.

Really just went out to see how it felt, 400 miles later it seems OK to me. SOOOOOOOOOO seein how I feel the night before might just give this ride a shot. [How many of us just thought we'd take a short spin only to make a day out of it] I'll bet plenty of you'se !!!!

Adding you to the list...remember KSU at 8am at the Best Western-gas tanks full. There is gas locally.

I will go over the route Saturday night at the motel for those that want a refresher of the route.

I will post up the final route here online by the end of this weekend. I will highlight maps for those that want to do that if they arrive early enough.

It's getting close!!! :yahoo:

Just called the hotel and got a 75.00 rate. I'll be there Sat afternoon. Traveling down from Akron area Sat morning. And thanks again Joe on the info, pick a spot to meet on Sat and I'll chase you down to the hotel.

I haven't heard anything from the fencesitters...so they need to commit now if they want to be on the list.

Marty/0Face - I think you mentioned heading over with me and griff on Saturday...is that right? If so, we are meeting near Griff's at 7am...making a stop at the Iron Pony in Columbus before heading south and east to 56 and 78...

If anybody showing up for the ride needs a gpx file, let me know by Sunday, that's when I'll be sending them out.

I'm in. Just made the reservation. I'll meet you guys for the ride down. I'll take a gpx file too.

You'll need to talk to griff...I believe it is occurring around noontime or thereabouts...but griff has the schedule.

No fence sitting hear... I didn't even look at the fence :yahoo: You guys have a great and safe time I will be out of town for this one.

[wheatonFJR]

BTW, I assume that most are just using their own tankbag map because I have only had two riders ask for a gpx file.

Let me know, as I will send them out tomorrow night...

Well I finally fell of the fence on the right side. I will be down Sat night. If anyone wants to split a room let me know. The wife will not be along for this trip. I will be using a tank bag map as I have not mastered the GPS...however it does look nice on the bike.

Excellent, good to see you again. Either highlight your map using the post above or come see me with a highlighter on Saturday night and I'll walk you thought the route we plan on doing on Sunday.

The Ramble is almost here... :yahoo:

Route looks great. So far, the weather looks favorable for next weekend

This week, signs were put up along 78 between McConnelsville and 83 South to start milling and paving (I didn't go any further East on 78). Shouldn't be an issue on the weekend though. Will be a beautiful section when complete :yahoo:

If anyone needs some entertainment Saturday evening, the Pioneer Motorcyle Club in Waterford has a hillclimb starting at 1700.

Looking forward to riding with everyone.

 

[El Toro Joe]

Hey Bryan do you know where in Waterford the hillclimb is going to be? I haven't been to one of those since I was a kid...might be kinda cool...those guys are crazy

Never mind...I found it...234 Angle Rd.

 

[0Face]

I made a turn-by-turn route sheet from the .gpx file and I also scanned my highlighted map.

PM me you email if you want them.

BE SURE TO DOUBLE CHECK MY WORK! :blink:

Also definitely check the route in your GPS. My GPS re-routed me onto a couple of other roads. I had to add a few way points to get it to finally read it right.
