I know most of you probably can’t make this but I thought I’d throw it out there for anybody that can and wants to ride. Pace will be medium-fast is my guess.

Route to Marietta

The return route is up in the air. Depends on how I’m feeling and how I’m doing on time. I was thinking something like this possibly though

I plan to be in Cadiz around 8. New Concord around 9:15 then Marietta around 11. I will probably eat lunch there. Let me know if you want to join me.

If you know what time you will be in beasville I would ride back with you

Rick I’m not exactly sure on the time. How long does it take you to get to Beallsville? I’m guessing it’ll be about 2-2.5 hrs from when I leave Marietta. I could text you when I’m leaving.

Dangit man, you out of school already? 

Not out yet. We just have Friday off and my wife has to work so I plan to take advantage of it. My last week is the week after Memorial Day.

Rick,  What time do you estimate passing the Marathon Gas/Riverside Dr, McConnelsville?

I just finished cutting the grass, so If I don't wear myself down on tomorrows ADV ride, I might be able to tag along for some of this great ride.

I got about one good day left on my Angel GT rear tire, so this would put me into a tire changing day next week.

My guess is 10-10:15. Let me know if I should look for you Brian.

Rick are you still planning on this? I’m currently at Arby’s in Marietta having lunch. Just wondering if I should look for you. Probably leave here in 15 minutes or so. Not sure what time exactly that puts me in Beallsville. If you’re going where should I look for you at?

That was a fun ride home also nice seeing doc

Glad you had fun Rick. Occasionally I would think to myself he probably thinks I’m an idiot and then you’d reappear in my mirror again. So I just continued on with more of the same.

Had an awesome day. Just under 550 miles.

Ran into a couple of OR friends on my way home.

 I hope to plan more Saturday rides this year so others can join. 

A couple things to report on road conditions. 

676 has a 15 mph turn section that is rippled pretty bad. It’s shortly after turning on to it off 555.

26 is closed between 260 and 537. Detour is pretty easy up 260N to 537.

255 is closed

536 has multiple issues, so much so that I was questioning if I wanted ride it ever again. Then I hit 556 and I realized all those tight twisty corners and disruptions made me so much more comfortable on a road that is not so technical.

Very nice to see you guys today. Felt good to hang out and shoot some sheeet and shred some corners.  I think we were extremely lucky with the number of cops out for MDay and few we ran right into.
