2016 SE Ohio Spyder Ride
Saturday June 18th 2016, 9:15 AM
We have had a lot of requests to put this ride on as a Spyder specific event, so we are going to do it in 2016.
We have hosted the SE Ohio Motorcycle Ride for the past 13 years which is always the 2nd Saturday in August (this ride is in addition to that). The route will be the same.
Here is all of the information. Hope to see everyone in June.

There will be lots of great curves and scenery to enjoy in this section ending up just north of Marietta.

Planned stops in this portion, [/SIZE] Muskingum River[SIZE=-1] locks #8.
There is very little traffic on these roads on Saturday, making this a very enjoyable ride. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=-1] This will be a 217 mile (total) ride. We will make appropriate gas and rest stops. There will be plenty of time for socializing. This is a good opportunity to take a nice ride, meet some new people, and possibly get away for a couple of days. Everyone is welcome, for this ride you just need to have a Spyder or be with someone riding a Spyder. Best of all, this ride is free and does not cost anything except food and gas.
If you only want to do the portion of the ride in the morning to the restaurant or the second half of the ride from the restaurant back, that is fine. We will be at the Court Restaurant at approximately 12:30 PM.

What to expect: A nice ride through some very scenic and even somewhat challenging roads.
A great time and a chance to meet old friends and make a few new ones. Single riders are welcome (Male and Female), you will find this to be a very social ride and group. Do not worry about coming alone and not knowing anyone, that will change pretty quickly.
We will block intersections. We also have people flagging at intersections that we can not block.

There are also several clubs and many individuals that will be participating.
We do go across the bridge into West Virginia for lunch, so helmets are required for this portion of the ride.
