June Ride-to-Eat
badjuju:
Hey Rick. Yup, I recognize your username, but not sure we've ever met (if we have, blame my old-timer's disease). I was gonna head west from the Green Twsp area near the 275/74 junction on 50 thru L-burg/Aurora, and then follow 56/156 and throw in a few of the purty backroads in Switzerland Cty. Not gonna claim I'm an expert on the backroads in SE Indiana, but the one's I've looked at are nice if you like narrow and twisty.
We can meet easily in Miamitown at Exit#7/OH128 and ride the westside roads from there. There's a Wendy's/BP/Marathon within a few feet of the exit ramp. If you want to run all the way to the Brookville exit on 74, we can meet somewhere south of that, maybe in Aurora or Rising Sun, and then hook up and head toward Warsaw. I plan on leaving my place around [see edit] so gimme a call at home before that if you want to meet up.
EDIT/ADD: I just mapped out a backroads route on GoogleMap and it's running about 2 hrs and change, so if you wanna meet at the Miamitown exit, lets move the time up to 10:15. If that's too early, we can short-cut some and drop a few of the backwoods scenic stuff….you know, the stuff Dice likes to refer to as goat paths. Lemeno.

Miamitown exit at 10:15 it is. See you there! I'll be on a silver SV650S.

Awesome, Rick. Looking forward to meeting you and seeing Pat again. Should be a great ride and a fun lunch!!!
ADD: I'll meet you in the Wendy's parking lot on SR128.
If you don't mind, I'll plunk along with you guys on the way back north thru NKY and hit the ferry with you. I'm always up for a boat ride.
Depending on how much time we spend eating and what your time constraints are, I know a devilishly fun route back that takes us thru Glencoe and Verona and then hits some more of the goat paths heading to the ferry. I'd be happy to show you all of my secret paths….. :)
Ciao--Bill
Patmo:
I want to thank everyone that showed up today. Had an absolutely picture perfect day to ride, as shown by the number of bikes we saw at the Sunset Grill, at Rabbit Hash, and on the road to and from. Food was good, roads were great, and company was even better. One problem...I forgot to take any pictures! So if anyone took any, please post them up!
Next month.......how about Natural Bridge State Resort Park Lodge? Time and date to be announced.

Pat: Thanks a ton for putting these events together. It was great seeing you again and getting to ride with new folks. As for the pics, I sheepishly admit that I threw my camera in the tank bag when I left home and didn't think to get it out once, not even on the stop in RH. Mea culpa!!!
Next time. Promise!
