Carbon_One Posted September 26, 2011 #101 Posted September 26, 2011 (edited) Ok due to the extra folks planning on attending this rally we have added another block of 10 rooms. The price will still be $42 per room If reservations are made by Oct 1st. So far we are supprised by the attention this ride rally is getting and we couldn't be any more happier then to sharing it with those who plan on joining us. Joe will update the 1st post when he gets a chance to reflect the info we have scattered thru this post. Larry Edited September 26, 2011 by Carbon_One

Larry Did the price go up ? it was $42 Looks like I may have 2 more couples that want to join us. I've put more miles on with one of them than anyone else I ride with. 10 rooms may not be enough Larry ! Looks like we got us a convoy.......:biker::biker::biker::biker: The 2 others are a go, they booked rooms this afternoon. Mike & Karen and I don't know the other couples names.

Woulld be nice if i could meet up and ride for a while with you. We took a similar ride last month and took b15 through pentwater up to ludington. b15 was a nice ride. Larry We should be coming to M52 at N. Territorial about 10-10:15. You're more then welcome to ride with us even if not going all the way. Wait at the stop sign and we won't miss you. LOL larry

Now you must book by Oct 1st 2011 and say its for the venture riders group. All we have to do now is pray for good weather. :fingers-crossed-emo Anyone needing any other information about the ride contact either Larry or myself. Can't wait to see everyone it should be a fun ride. Joe

ALL riders coming tru Owosso meet at the M21 Westown shell 1/2 mile west of M52 Will post more if needed anyone needing information on the ride you can contact Larry or myself. However I am on the road 12-13hrs a day so hard for me to post anything till I get home if needed send me an E-mail I can check it easier. eros2010@comcast.net Thanks
DarrinGT Posted September 27, 2011 #108 Posted September 27, 2011 WOW great turnout guys! Now I wish we had not have planned out fall ride this weekend. Well shoot for joining you on the next one!
Carbon_One Posted September 27, 2011 #109 Posted September 27, 2011 WOW great turnout guys! Now I wish we had not have planned out fall ride this weekend. Well shoot for joining you on the next one! Who says you couldn't join us the following weekend? The room is cheap, gas prices are falling, you eat regardless of where you go. Of course eating at home is the cheapest way to go. Where else can you go and have this much fun on a budget? Larry
Jake Posted September 27, 2011 #110 Posted September 27, 2011 Hi all, Hopefully if the weather agree's, Swifty and I will be meeting up at the 168 exit off I-69 which is Imlay City for anyone else travelling thru this area at 9:30am on Sat, Oct. 8th. Fuel stop on North East corner of freeway. And then travelling to the Owosso meet up at the M21 Westown Shell 1/2 mile west of M52. Ride Hard/Ride Often/Ride Safe Jake.

Larry Sorry, I meant That Weekend, not This Weekend,..Other wise , Yea! we would be there!
Carbon_One Posted September 27, 2011 #112 Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) Sorry, I meant That Weekend, not This Weekend,..Other wise , Yea! we would be there! You'll be missed but you know where we're staying at Saturday nite so maybe our paths will cross. PM sent Darrin Larry Edited September 27, 2011 by Carbon_One
Carbon_One Posted September 27, 2011 #113 Posted September 27, 2011 I have a running list of those who plan on attending. If I missed someone let me know so I can be sure to add them on the list. This includes those who have said "maybe". we need to keep the list somewhat current so if more rooms are needed we can add them. The hotel has been wonderfull in granting extensions on the number of rooms requested to be blocked so far. Remember that the $42 rate only is good till Oct 1st. After that their regular rates apply. Thanks, Larry
Carbon_One Posted September 27, 2011 #114 Posted September 27, 2011 (edited) For those on the fence about whether to attend or not due to weather concerns here's a link for that weekends forecast. http://www.accuweather.com/us/mi/ludington/49431/forecast-details.asp?fday=11 This is going to be a great weekend to ride.

KarlS Posted September 27, 2011 #116 Posted September 27, 2011 Larry: you posted : Yea going right thru Stockbridge on 52. Actually going thru it coming home too. I think we should be going thru town about 10am - 10:20. Pm me on where you want to meet at. Since Stockbridge is only 40 miles from Owosso do you think we should be OK if we are at Westown Shell at 11:00am?

Since Stockbridge is only 40 miles from Owosso do you think we should be OK if we are at Westown Shell at 11:00am? It does look like a long time heh. According to my Streets & Trips program it's 48 1/2 miles from N. Territioral Rd & M52 to the Westown Shell. Take in consideration we'll be meeting Sach57 in Stockbridge plus getting thru town the time will be closer then you think. We'll have I think 8 -10 bikes in tow as well. All of this is speculative on how well we get off to a good start etc. Could be a bit early or late accordingly. On another note Joe & I have chosen our lunch stops for Saturday near Greenville and another in Chesaning for Sunday on the way home. Still looking for a suitable location for Saturday evenings dinner. I did have a place picked but our group was too big for them. Later, Larry
star4772 Posted September 28, 2011 Author #118 Posted September 28, 2011 :thumbsup2::clap2: Yahooooooooooooooooo Joe
rickardracing Posted September 28, 2011 #119 Posted September 28, 2011 Larry, it had better be nice next weekend..............my wife has gotta try out those sweet arm rests!!! It should be a nice run. Looking forward to it!!
ibents Posted September 28, 2011 #120 Posted September 28, 2011 Sorry can't make this one, I have a hockey tourney in London that weekend. Hope you all enjoy and ride safe. Ian

Carbon_One Posted September 28, 2011 #122 Posted September 28, 2011 (edited) OK folks looks like we have finally ironed out the main stops. Leaving my house at 9am. Riding with whoever comes to the house. Meet more riders at the Sunoco gas station on US-23 & N.Territorial rd. Leave there at 9:30. Pickup a rider or two going thru to Stockbridge and meet the rest of the riders at the Westown Shell at 1/2 mile west of M52 & M21. From there we head west to Greenville and have lunch at the Ponderosa restaurant - http://www.ponderosasteakhouses.com/ponderosa/ . Next we head on to Ludington with a rest stop or two along the way as needed. Joe & I have made arrangements for Saturday evenings dinner at the Old Hamlin restaurant - http://www.oldhamlin.com/ While there are many restaurants around Ludington only a few are able to handle our groups size. Some that could, needed an advanced schedule booked & prepaid. Sorry not on my dime. LOL On Sunday mornings breakfast we also decided to again go to the Old Hamlin restaurant. $7.29 for a breakfast bar. Discounts for seniors 55 & over apply both days too. We felt that their prices and service would be very good. Anyhow the owner is looking to be of service us all. On our way home we'll be stopping in Chesaning for lunch at Riverfront Grille - http://www.riverfront-grille.com/ . They too are looking forward to us being there. Check out the menus from the restaurants. After we leave Chesaning the riders will start heading their seperate ways to home. Pretty much like we did coming up I would think. Of course if some prefer different places to eat etc they're more then welcome to go where they wish, especialy in Ludington for dinner. Oh the title of this being the Little River Casino Fall ride Manistee was that in the past we did go to the casino so anyone wanting to go there Saturday after we get into Ludington can still do so if they wish. It's just under 30 miles to get there. Can't think of anything else at the moment but if we didn't cover something so far let us know. I know Joe & I are really looking forward to this fall ride and hope all those who go with us have a great time too. Larry Edited September 29, 2011 by Carbon_One breakfast bar not loaded LOL
KarlS Posted September 28, 2011 #123 Posted September 28, 2011 Glad you picked Old Hamlin. I've had their fantastically good breakfast a few times. Do you have a rough estimate of what time we should be in Owosso?
star4772 Posted September 28, 2011 Author #124 Posted September 28, 2011 Old hamlin has a full breakfast bar with all the fixins for $7.29 Thats a breakfast bar not a loaded breakfast like Larry mentioned :doh:. LOL just giving Larry a hard time. :bighug:Bud :rotf: Marsha at the restraunt also said they are suppose to have good weather the next couple weeks. :fingers-crossed-emo Joe
KarlS Posted September 28, 2011 #125 Posted September 28, 2011 Lets not forget the House of Flavors where they make their own ice cream.
