Carbon_One Posted June 7, 2012 #1 Posted June 7, 2012 Who wants to get together for a ride this Saturday? Or Sunday if that's prefered? Maybe meet for breakfast or along a route somewhere. Thinking of going out to the Irish Hills area, perhaps lunch at the sports bar & grill at US-12 & US 23. Depending on who wants to attend we can alter meet locations as well as where we go. Maybe a nice ice cream stop before the days over. Larry
star4772 Posted June 7, 2012 #2 Posted June 7, 2012 I'm up for it either day. Come on riders lets get together. Joe
adventurer 08 Posted June 7, 2012 #3 Posted June 7, 2012 This weekend the wife and i are riding up up Oscoda for a bike rally.
star4772 Posted June 7, 2012 #4 Posted June 7, 2012 This weekend the wife and i are riding up up Oscoda for a bike rally. Is that an overnight deal? Sound's like a good ride. Joe
MiCarl Posted June 7, 2012 #5 Posted June 7, 2012 Ok, time for a shameless plug....... Why don't you guys come by Rosenau Saturday at 10:00 for the STAR Touring meeting? Afterwards we're riding to Adrian for lunch then to Dundee for ice cream. Should be a fun day.
adventurer 08 Posted June 7, 2012 #6 Posted June 7, 2012 We are trying to leave at one or so on friday afternoon if my wife can leave work at noon. If not we plan to leave early saturday morning, two lane blacktop all the way there. We are staying at Rest All Inn rite in Oscoda just for saturday nite and coming home on Sunday not to late.
straycatt Posted June 8, 2012 #7 Posted June 8, 2012 Sniff....my bike is broken. The shock finally started barfing oil, so it's handling horribly and the ignition switch works only about half of the time. I've got a toggle switch wired in so it's rideable, but it's no fun to ride very far with the rear suspender like it is.

Carbon_One Posted June 8, 2012 Author #9 Posted June 8, 2012 (edited) Rosenau on Ford road west of Telegraph? Joe Yep that's the place Joe. Carl we may well take you up on that offer. Do we need to print and fill out the rider waiver forms prior to attending or do you have forms available at site? Larry UPDATE: Printed out forms and did some reading thru the Star site.

MiCarl Posted June 8, 2012 #10 Posted June 8, 2012 Yep that's the place Joe. Carl we may well take you up on that offer. Do we need to print and fill out the rider waiver forms prior to attending or do you have forms available at site? Larry We'll have blank forms. If you want to complete yours in advance to save time Saturday it is HERE. I hope you guys can make it, I missed seeing you for MD.
ragtop69gs Posted June 8, 2012 #11 Posted June 8, 2012 A RIDE ? Did I hear someone say a ride ! I think I could be talked into that.
star4772 Posted June 8, 2012 #12 Posted June 8, 2012 A RIDE ? Did I hear someone say a ride ! I think I could be talked into that. Well you better just get your happy little a** ready there bud. :rotf: We need more to ride.
Gary N. Posted June 8, 2012 #13 Posted June 8, 2012 Sorry guys, my weekend is full up and I can't make it this time. But I sure wish I could.
ragtop69gs Posted June 8, 2012 #14 Posted June 8, 2012 Well you better just get your happy little a** ready there bud. :rotf: We need more to ride. Me be there. Jeannie just had surgery on Tuesday and the doc says no riding, gardening or bending over for 2 weeks
motorcycle.jockey Posted June 8, 2012 #15 Posted June 8, 2012 I'd be available on Sunday. Especially if the ride comes down to the Irish Hills/Adrian area.
T.J. Posted June 8, 2012 #16 Posted June 8, 2012 Got a date with my grandson to go fishing Larry. I will be having fun. He just turned 6. Have a great time.
BigD Posted June 8, 2012 #17 Posted June 8, 2012 Sorry Larry, full weekend but great job on trying to get something going.

Afterwards we're riding to Adrian for lunch then to Dundee for ice cream. Should be a fun day. Where at for lunch and what time? I have to work some Sat. morning,but Adrian is only an hour away. My Yamaha is down right now, but if you would let me in with my Harley Ultra I might show up. I seen Larry at B2 Mom and Dad's and I think I could put up with him for a little while.
ragtop69gs Posted June 9, 2012 #19 Posted June 9, 2012 Looks like ( Larry, Joe & I) we're going South of the border into Canada tomorrow. We'll make our way up to Sarnia for the return trip, who knows where we'll go in between both bridge crossings. Maybe Grand Bend. Any of our Canadian friends wanna meet for lunch or suggest some good roads to ride? Any more riders coming speak up now.

If you get on Riverside Drive in Windsor and head east and stay close to the water you'll end up in Chatham. From there the roads are mostly straight and boring until you get up to the ST. Clair River. If you have the extra time head south along the Detroit River from Windsor to Amherstburg and just stay as close as you can to the river and lake Erie to Wheatley and Blenheim. Then you can go to Ridgetown and up to Thamesville where you can catch a road that runs back to Chatham along the south side of the Thames river through the Indian reservation. Wish I could join you as I ride these roads all the time and know them well.
ragtop69gs Posted June 9, 2012 #21 Posted June 9, 2012 Sounds good to me, don't really care where we go as long as I can buy some Alberta Springs Rye whisky at the duty free on the way home
ragtop69gs Posted June 10, 2012 #22 Posted June 10, 2012 Not a bad day at all. Just the 3 of us, Carbon One, Star4772 and I. The plan was to ride into Canada but that changed this morning. We ended up going southwest after a good breakfast. Our first stop was in Hell for ice water, after 3 of them we continued southwest to Onsted, Mi. and toured Town and County Cycle then into Artiesan Wells bar where we ate a big lunch. After lunch we visited Round Lake (see pics below) and stopped for a break, Joe had to sit down on the bench to let his food settle, one look at the bench and you can see why. Then we headed for home.

Don't let Jay fool you all that bench was made like that,not because I sat down :no-no-no: That's ok Jay got us lost and we had to find a place to turn around and on a dirt road at that. :rotf:so much for our leader. :rotf:LOL But Larry and I found the way home.

I wasn't lost! I was going to turn around so you'd quit whining
BuckShot Posted June 10, 2012 #25 Posted June 10, 2012 Doesn't sound like you guys made it far enough south for me to meet you. Maybe next time.....With a little more notice....
