SCRC Ohio Picnic 2013

Cruisers,

The first (hopefully annual) Ohio State SCRC picnic is coming up Saturday August 31, 2013 at Buck Creek State Park: 1901 Buck Creek Ln, Springfield, Ohio 45502-8876

The event starts about 10:30 am and will have fun, food and games.   Dee and I will be grabbing breakfast at Cracker Barrel on SR 122 in Middletown about 0830 and leaving to ride to Buck Creek about 0930.  There are already several members planning to join.  Feel free to join us for breakfast, meet just for the ride, or meet us there.   We need RSVPs though for the food count.  Let us know at what point to expect you as well.

Steve and Dee’s Ride – May 2013

Cruisers,

Steve and Dee’s ride for May will be May 19, 2013.  We’ll be doing a short pre-ride through the country before getting to the Blessing of the Bikes in Dayton between 10 and 11.  This should give us plenty of time to enjoy the food and music before the actual blessing at 1pm.  It’s a good time, even if you’re not particularly “faithful” :).   The ride will be starting from Cracker Barrel in Middletown on State Route 122.   Kickstands up about 9 am.  Dee and I will be getting there about 8am for some breakfast if anyone would like to join us.

The end of the ride is the Blessing so riders may feel free to depart the event at their leisure.  Hope to see you there!

If you’re interested, check out the report and pictures from the 2012 Blessing of the Bikes

Here’s this year’s flier for the event:

Ride to Rabbit Hash – Report

Cruisers,

If you missed the ride to Rabbit Hash, you missed a good time!   Several riders met Rod at the starting point in Germantown and several more joined in near Ross.  Later, John and his wife from 088 met up with us in Rabbit Hash proper.  By the time it was done we had riders from three chapters!  We visited Rabbit Hash and Jane’s Saddlebag before crossing the river at Markland dam and making our way back through Rising Sun, Aurora and Lawrenceburg.  Last stop was Flubs for some ice cream in Hamilton.

While we were in Rabbit Hash, a couple of us looked for and found a geocache called “Lost Keys in Rabbit Hash”.  Here’s Steve’s log of the find.

Check out the pictures:

Rabbit Hash Ride – April 14, 2013

Cruisers,

State Officer Rod Armstrong will be leading a ride for 044 and any other interested chapters to Rabbit Hash, KY.   The ride will be starting at the Shell station on SR725 west of Germantown and next to Captain 9’s.  Kickstands up 10am.  RSVPs appreciated so we’ll know who to expect.

If you’ve never been to Rabbit Hash, check out pictures from the last time we were there.

Here’s a map to Captain 9’s and Shell if needed.   And.. if you’re so inclined, a map of Rabbit Hash.

Lastly, if you’re a geek like me, you can download the ICS file to import into your calendar
