what Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 (edited) ***Cancelled due to cold weather moving in*** I need to get the SV out and blow out the cobwebs as there finally seems to be some interest in the bike so I want to stretch its legs a bit this weekend. I will be doing a short-ish ride Saturday to get the dust off. My proposed route is here: https://goo.gl/maps/5GQH46TBxsy Meet time would be noon at the Canal Winchester/674 exit BP station off of 33. End point is whenever people want to break off and head home. Fuel stops here: Marathon Gas - 5220 OH-78, Buchtel, OH 45716 Pace will be brisk. Edited March 2, 2017 by what Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whaler Posted February 27, 2017 Report Share Posted February 27, 2017 This is why I hate anyone who loves south of Mansfield this time of year... its like NEO is a different f$!&ing continent. Somebody did something really bad along time ago and we all have to suffer the bad weather karma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe we can get him out Sunday. According to his forecast it's a degree warmer up here than it is in C-Bus that day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to his forecast it's a degree warmer up here than it is in C-Bus that day. The difference is not just temperature. Cloudy versus sunny, precipitation versus no precipitation. Just the difference in solar load makes a huge difference in perceived temperature. Of course we just had a week of great February weather capped off with a 78 deg day which rolled right into a 35 deg day with snow. That and I need something to bitch about... we are so close to full time riding weather, the last 4-6 weeks of this shit is harder than the previous 4 months.

what Posted February 28, 2017 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2017 Temps shifted to 45 degrees with snow in the morning on Saturday. If it's looking the same on Friday it goes without saying I won't be going out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

what Posted March 2, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 I'm going to go ahead and call it now so everybody can go ahead and make other weekend plans - I won't be going out Saturday. I don't have cold weather gear and a high of 40 is too low for me to want to ride in. I'll save this route for later this spring though and re-post it.

2talltim Posted March 2, 2017 Report Share Posted March 2, 2017 My son's birthday was yesterday and I think the wife made plans to take him out Saturday any way. I can't Sunday either but might make a loop somewhere Monday after work. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
