Really busy schedule, but it might be fun to try to fit something in, meet some people on the forum in real life. I'm interested.

Funny you should ask.

We are a group of anywhere from 4 to 12 who rides on a fairly regular basis; at least once a month from now until November. No Shadows anymore, mostly Valkyries and Gold Wings, with a few other brands thrown in for good measure. We are all in our 40's and 50's (and a few 60's).

We ride all over NE/SE Ohio. Meet many times In Middlefield as it is central point for everybody; Akron, Mentor, and Youngstown folks commonly join in.

This Sunday we are riding western Pennsylvania. Going to leave out of the Youngstown area (my house) at about 9:30 am. Going to ride over to Butler, PA to a GREAT breakfast stop and then up around on some REALLY nice roads to Foxburg, PA; to the winery there. It will be all of about 4-5 hours and is about 100-125 miles door to door from my house; plus the miles you need to get here and back.

You're welcome to join us... contact me (PM) if you're interested.

crittar · 04-16-2012, 05:01 PM

been there by car could go by bike on a nice day would be a nice ride... i wouldnt care about all I90 because i like alot of state/county roads in ohio like (rt 84,rt 307, rt 283/lake rd. ect. im sure there are similiar roads in PA as well. or possibly state/county roads going and I90 coming back for example. where bouts you at?

I'm out of Brunswick south of Cleveland. It would be a nice summer ride out there. Been there lots of times in a cage, I see lots of bikes there every time.
I think Route 20 goes all the way there, but 90 is also nice, not much traffic. I say around last July or August so the ride home is also nice.
