Ride With Tank

Tonight I was doing some research for good roads and I found something interesting.  I found a listing that said route 555 from Zanesville, OH to the river is the best road in Ohio.  While looking at the Mountainfest web site I saw that Rt. 50 in West Virginia was voted the fourth best road in the country to ride.  As it turns out, 555 meets 50 at the border.  I got an idea that this could be a great ride, but it will be a long ride.  It comes out to about 500 miles with a lot of it on two lane road.  Even so, Streets a Trips says we can do this ride in about 9 hours.  Add in an hour for breakfast, an hour for lunch, and an hour for dinner.  Leaving at 6:00AM should get us back around 6:00PM.  Let me know if anyone is interested in trying this one.

Today we took a ride to Columbus to see the Easyriders Motorcycle Show.  It was pretty interesting and I have posted the pictures of the bikes I liked the best here.  The guys from Milwaukee Iron were there and they insisted they get their pictures taken with the Tankster.

This morning on the way to work I saw something I could not believe.  I was heading north on 169 at about 6:30AM during the blizzard we had this morning and a guy on a motorcycle passed me going south.  I think he might have been on a Suzuki GSXR.  Here is a guy I could ride with.  I am sure the threat of rain in the forecast for a ride would not keep this guy from showing up for the ride. 

Today I registered my domain and began the site.  Here you will find listings of all kinds of motorcycle events primarily in the NE Ohio area .  All my rides leave from the McDonalds at Salt Springs Road and Rt. 80.  I am going to strive to keep this site advertisement and pop up free and to not load it down with a lot of unnecessary junk. Email me with any events I have not listed and I will be happy to add them to my list.
