Default Western Ohio HDF get together this summer (hosted by yours truly)

A day of fun filled riding followed by dinner at Rudy's Smokehouse in Springfield and beverages at JackAss Flats in Dayton.
I'm thinking the weekend after the 4th of July. (July 9th)
Anyone interested?

Yea, I am. Would we be gathering in Springfield, Urbana or Marysville, maybe?

Really wouldn't matter to me. I was thinking of doing some Greene County maybe down to Ceasar's Creek, then back up to Springfield for dinner, and on west to Huber Heights/Jack *** Flats

Sounds interesting! I used to spend a lot of time around the Dayton area when I worked for a computer company (who's name shall not be spoken, other than to say the founder's name is part of Wright-Patterson...as in the Air Force base).
I'm not familiar with the particular clubs you mentioned, but areas like Caesars Creek and Greene County would be fun to ride the scooter around!
I live in Pittsburgh, so it isn't that far of a ride to get there, so I would definately be interested assuming work and/or family matters don't present any obstacles.
I'll be checking back on this thread to see what developes.
