Ride to Parkersburg WV from Indy

[CaptainJoe]

Might have to change the cocomos thing. Went there yesterday and they have two puny little tv's. Either my memmory isnt very good or they changed them out......

Going for a ride to pick up parts in Parkersburg later today.

There are all kinds of sports bars along Emmerson Avenue... Just have to find the right one...

Any Suggestions?

[CaptainJoe]

Dudes and Dudettes,

I found the Perfect little Sports Bar/restaurant...

 

A place called:

 

J.P. Henrys

5106 Emerson Avenue

Parkersburg, WV 26104

 

If your comming in off Interstate 77 take Emmerson Avenue exit 179

turn onto Rt 68 w towards Pburg.

Go 2 miles they are on the left (going down a hill)

 

Rt 50 joins Interstate 77 at exit 176 (so just go north 3 miles and your there)

 

Hope to see you all there... I'll be there a little before 1:00.

Look for the dude in a Black Steelers shirt..

my cell number is (304) 531-1840

 

This place is awsome! You will be pleasantly surprised...

Hope you all have a good safe ride. I have other plans and can not join.Thanks any how Dano.

Just wondering though, you say you are delivering a trailer. Do you biuld trailers and sell ?

[Dano]

No, this is a camper trailer I picked up a couple of months ago. Just unloading it. I'm supposed to meet the guy at 50 and 47. Is this close to where you guys are talking about? I'd like to tie the two together to save time.

 

I do, however, build trailer hitches for 1st gens!

[CalhounWV]

where and at what time are you meeting him?

 

I think there is only a park and ride there.

 

J.P Henery's is approx 3 to 4 miles from that intersection.

[CaptainJoe]

Dano Pm'd me and said he and the buyer are just gonna meet us at J.P.Henrys. around

1-1:30 to save time...

[CaptainJoe]

Sounds good looks like we're gonna have nice weather!

[CalhounWV]

Quick post to let you know I will not be able to make it there.

[Dano]

OK, sorry to hear that, we'll meet next time down the road somewhere.

[CaptainJoe]

Yup, same here.

Well perhaps you'll be able to make the 9/25/2010 meat and eat...

May not have (as many) deer burgers as I would have liked, but we sure won't go hungry. It's a long story...

[CaptainJoe]

Hety Dano,

Just checking in to see if ya made it back in time for the Game, and, if turned out the way you wanted it???

[Dano]

Made it back a little after 8, if you watched the game you know I'm happy!!!!

 

Thanks for meeting us and the lunch!

 

 

575 miles altogether, 14.8 gallons (+/-, started with a half tank that took me 70+ miles down to Exit 1 just inside Ohio) equals 38.8 mpg average. Not bad for hauling a 350 lb trailer 284 miles (sometimes at 70-75 mph) and VERY much WOT on the way back! I gotta tell you, those Cincinnati drivers don't pay attention to the speed limit very well! Did around 80 just to keep up with traffic!
