<div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"> Unsure if I can make it as I am headed to Watkins Glen on the 20th. Sounds like a good venue. May I suggest Muskie's big Bucket display McConnelsville appx. 9 miles east off of Rte 555 on Rte 37. Google it if unfamiliar impressive photo op.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"> Other curvaceous roads east of I77 however, are: Rte 26N, 800, and 536. Rte. 26 follows The Little Muskingum River and passes 3 covered bridges. I have just started exploring this part of Ohio (patooey) and am loving it except the hour drive to get there.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"> Please keep us informed</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div><br></div>

<div>You have not heard much from me about a planned WPTA Summer trip to WV and
VA. I’m writing to those who responded and our those who may be interested. And
if I have left someone out please forward this and include them if you think
they may be interested.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I could not bring the WV and VA trip together for a lot of reasons but I’ve
planned an alternative for August 18 and 19 much closer to home and one
overnight stay.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Ohio has Ohio 555 from Zanesville, OH south to the Ohio river and I’ve
heard it’s a favorite of the Motorcycle crowd. Google Ohio 555 and you’ll find
some good information about the Triple Nickel.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Here’s my plan. We can all meet in Zanesville at 11:00 am on the 18th and
run 555 as far south as we want. I need to study the map a bit closer. Maybe
Mapman aka Bruce can look at the route in detail with any suggestions as we will
stay in Athens, OH overnight. Athens is a college town so it must have some
decent bars for our after run Beer and Bull on the 18th. 555 does not go into
Athens but we can cut off and go through the Wayne National Forest to
Athens.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>On the 19th we can run north again using back roads of our choosing to get
home. Likely some good routes north or run 555 for return. That will get
planned.</div>
