Well I have the plan for the Shephard ride on April 26th. We will meet between 9:00 & 9:30 at the Village Place Resturant, It's in the Waterfall plaza in Waterford. The cross roads are Dixie Hwy and Andersonville Road. We will be leaving at 9:30 or as soon as everyone gets there. We'll go out Andersonville to Davisburg out through Fenton and Linden to Byron. Then will head north through Durand to 71 and head through Corunna to Owosso were we will pick up Hwy 21 west a few miles outside of Owosso we'll turn north no Carland Rd and weave our way up to Hwy 57, head west to Middleton. In downtown Middelton we'll get on Ely Hwy and head north past Alma to Shephard. On the way back will head east out of Shephard and then weave our way south to Ithaca where we'll pickup Hwy 127 south. We'll take that to St. Johns and pick up Hwy 21 back to Owosso and back down to Waterford. If any of you are intersted your more then welcome to ride along.

Yeah, that'd be a nice ride. Another nice ride is from like Rockwood to Irish Hills. We did a run through there last year.

Hey Fishman how you doing? Did you get that little tweaking done on your bike yet? I've got mine all set to go and now need some weather worth riding in. Last weekend was the best so far. Did you make it out yet?

By the way how far is New Hudson from Waterford? The reason I'm asking is, a few guys from this way are headed up to Shepard Mi for the Maple fest on Sunday and I wanted to let you know in case you are interested. Maybe we can hook up along the way.

I'm also planning a run to the Holland tulip fest with wife and the invite is open. That's the weekend of May 8,9 & 10th. We would take off Friday after work and head to Hastings and stay the night. Then head for Holland in the morning. Weather pending of course.

Keep in touch and safe riding.

Seriously, Steve and I enjoyed a ride a few weeks ago and expect to have more, if not this year, than many for next year. I know they have a ride planned for this Saturday going to Frankenmuth. If you want to be in the loop shoot us an email and we'll let you know when we plan rides.
Hey Steve, did you choose Scala Q2 or Scala Rider? Just wondering And are you in for this Sunday if the weather is good?

I was wondering if you were planning to tough it out and bear the weather. Wise choice...it looks like another nasty one.

Agnelo, we went through Farmington today passed Grand River on out to the Irish Hill and Coldwater. Meanie lives in Royal Oak, I live in Waterford so I went there and we worked our way across. We would have welcomed you to ride along.
Keep track of this Tread because I usually post rides to see if anyone wants to ride. You can E-mail me at seesir@aol.com if you have any questions. I do alot of rides 2up with the wife it's a lot of fun.

I'm glad to hear you saved some money that means you can do more riding. lol
Meanie and I left Royal Oak around 10:30 and got home around 6:00pm we put on 279 miles. The country roads over there are great. The worst road were in the citys Like Jackson but boy once you get off the main roads those rolling hills and sweeping turns are real fun. I'm going to plan a ride so we can all get together. Saturday's are best for me, how about you! and can the wifes come?
