RIDE: Michigan Fall Color Ride, Saturday October 11th. Kickstands up at 9:00AM

Hello All,
Going to meet this year at the Overtyme Grill and Tap Room parking lot, 4724 Dixie Hwy., Waterford MI (It is just south of last years meeting spot off Dixie and Floradale Rd. (If the numbers are as large as last year we will have ample room.).
Kickstands up at 9:00AM.
First break stop will be at the Mobil Station M24 and I69 approximately 48 miles away. I have a report our route may be compromised at this point. I can adjust if necessary.
Next break will be at the Speedway in Vassar another 77 miles.
We will have lunch and then head to the Cider Mill in Lapeer. Plan your fuel accordingly.
All Backroads ride to Frankenmuth for lunch at the Dead Creek. With a loop back to Lapeer MI to the Past Tense Cider Mill.

Thought I would give this a bump. Little over 2 weeks away.

Also, depending on turn out for this (Last year we had 32 bikes) I may need some volunteer Ride Leaders.
Any assistance will be appreciated.
Regard, Steve

I rode the route last weekend (everything except the section outside Otisville, I rode my old route) there was one little part just before our break stop in Vassar that may be closed, but I got through on Saturday.
The weather people are giving us their blessing too.
Hope to see you Saturday.
Regards,
Steve

Still haven't figured out how to change the Unconfirmed to Confirmed. Says check back in 0 days to confirm, but there doesn't seem to be a hyperlink to change. If you click on your name it just takes you to your profile.
It finally let me Confirm!!!! Woo Hoo!!

Oh, I wish I could join you! I'm a new member, and would love to meet and ride with you, but I'm an AYSO soccer coach for 2 more weeks, and we have games at 10 am on Saturday. Vassar and Frankenmuth are just 10-15 minutes from me, too. Bummer!

Hello Everyone,
Thanks to all that made it out on Saturday. Was a really nice ride. Thanks for posting up the video Nivin. Looks good.
In case anyone hadn't heard I fell coming out of my neighrborhood on the main road. I'm going with really cold tires caused the problem. Scratches and broke the shifter toe grabber was the only damage. Went home and drilled a hole and put a screw in to get through the day. Got a nice bruise on my thigh from my wallet too.
Was about 15 minutes late to the meet spot. Didn't get coffee until Vassar, because the coffee machine was broke at the Mobil station in Lapeer, bummer.
Most of the group headed out after Frankenmuth. Had 4 takers for the ride to the cider mill.
Thanks again,
Steve
