    Since Brian had to cancel his run I am putting together a replacement. I won't have pre-drove it with the short notice.

    It will be trekking over to the east side of the state and run the roads around the "Ohio Dragon". Figure for an all day event.

    Allen I figure any guy who grew up on those roads & lived to tell the tale could wheel anything down those roads at a respectable clip. :wink:

    Drive the Si. :smilewinkgrin:

    I'm going camping in PA all week. Bikes and camping gear doesn't fit in the Si. Plus I might end up sleeping in the van a night or two so the 5 is the only choice.

    You need to swap in a Speed 3 motor into the 5.

    It has plenty of torque steer with the little power it currently has, I can't imagine my wrists would stay functional with a turbo added.

    Rain isn't suppose to happen until late. So we'll stay with Sunday.

    Welcome Aboard Tom.

    Nice drive Nick, what I saw of it. Getting lost is a great opportunity to explore new roads & see new sights. Thanks! :Thumbsup:

    337 miles door to door.
