WKRP ride-out from Columbus
Sat Mar 22, 2008 2:02 am
I wanted to start a thread to get a ride-out together for WKRP. Even if you're hauling from C-Bus, it would be great if we could go en masse.

Any Posse members or Cutters, or independents that want to ride out together, let's plan now.

We are leaving on Friday from the Speed Factory on High Street. Let's pin down a time.

Let's say 1:00Pm to start. I'm open for discussion if most people want to leave later or earlier. I don't really have a preference.

Watching the weather sounds like fun though we will keep you posted, what route are you looking at? I see 62 will take you pretty far south running out of Grove City.
I wil PM you my cell number. We can always catch up to you.

it's gone from a 60% chance of rain in cinciny fri/sat down to 30 in the last two days.

i'll be leaving work around 11:30 and want to leave not too long after that.

perhaps to say we are leaving at 10am so we got out of town at 1.

Scousermike has a route plotted. I'm open to leave anytime. If we agree on a time I'll be there at that time.

Kathy, are you and Tom riding or hauling and what's a good time for you?

My route is basically a no brainer, 3C southwest all the way:

62: would be leaving Columbus on Harrisburg Pike (62/3C) through Grove City and Harrisburg to Washington Court House.

From Washington Courthouse we take 22/3C through Wilmington all the way to Cincinnati.

I have the day off, so I'm open. I wouldn't want to leave any later than one. If riding alone, I guess I would leave around eleven.

If it rains Friday, it may be best to leave earlier or later to avoid it if possible.

I took your advice and got some nice mitts with fingers inside. Big difference in riding. I was concerned I wouldn't be able to grab brakes but it was no problem. 20% off, too. Should be good for the highway.

i think i got the last pair of large with the skulls.

no doubt will keep your hands warm and dry. and as long as you don't use them for gardening, or stopping yourself at 50mph, they'll last a long time.

I'm ready, rain or not. The beer will just taste that much better when we get there.

BTW, sounds like rain and 45 degrees. Are we not men...

Weekend looks good. Tomorrow could be a mess.

Saw on news this a.m. that rain was to get past Columbus around noon.

If you're only wearing speedos, that's a good idea.

We're not even leaving until 6 PM. We'll be going for about an hour or so after the sun sets, and I'm sure we're probably looking at a little rain with the possibility of 35 degree weather. Yippee.
