Here's the river routeIve got to tell you if you liked the run last weekend on Rt.2 I think youllreally like this run I think this is some of the best riding road's in the midwest.
JB Thankyou....That turned out to betheunderstatement of the year aboutourbest & motley-istride of the year... The ride went from 7am Saturday morning to 1:30am Sunday...Those roads were absolutely amazing,lots of twists & turns,ups & downs and really scenic.( even a stretch of gravel too ! ) We all really had an incredible time,BMW Ron says he really enjoyed it too.

Would have been great to have the veteransSnowy,Earthdog,Strag,Pacemaker & others there with us but there will definitely be a sequel !

One of the best local rides I've had in a long time. I enjoyed the roads and scenery, I enjoyed Breitbach's, and I really enjoyed everyone's company.

Thanks for letting a quiet BMW rider tag along.

("quiet" referring to me, not my bike, although my bike does sound more like a sewing machine next to a Harley! )

Great Pictures.. Wish I could have been there, however, don't think my *** would have lasted nearly 500 miles on the sportster...... So, guess I will be up for the spring re-run.

Ron any time you want to ride is fine by me,it was good to have you along and I'm glad you enjoyed the ride. I had a buddy that rode a BMW for a while an R60I believe I always liked that bike. I'mplanning on looking for one to restore when I get a shop built.

Spring rerun sounds good to me. I think you just may need to get a bit better seat for those hi-mile runs, but with the miles you're putting on you may want to think about trading up.
