Smile TOSRV OHIO 2017 -- Granddaddy of them all!

For those forumites who haven't heard, TOSRV Ohio is changing it's start date one week later. It's now May 20-21.

Columbus Outdoor Pursuits ran a survey past last year's riders and, as the site says, #TheMobsRule

The change was important enough and, I believe, at least a 70% response rate to change the date. 55 years strong and now, for #56, a new era.

I've been riding TOSRV off-an-on since 1976. This is a good change.

Forum Readers who frequent the ride, I hope to see you there! Online registration opens January 29th.

ps: I hope they've finished the Lake White spillway construction at Waverly by then!

TOSRV--addendum

I suppose I should have mentioned that, for 55 years, TOSRV was held on Mother's Day Weekend.

Hence, finally, the change.

Sorry.

Darn, just missed you. I rode it once, in '74.

Great ride, great experience.

Bus trip from NYC was long!

So psyched that its not on Mothers Day anymore. My wife used to get so pissed....

Riding again this year in honor of my dad who just passed away and probably had at least 25 TOSRV's under his belt!

Sorry for your loss. What better way to honor him. I will be in attendance again this year, too. Word from Columbus is that they are keeping the route to Portsmouth, but may be moving the start away from the Heimat Haus. (not my favorite)

I take it from your "handle" that you are from Indianapolis? I am originally from Evansville. 'Been in Jacksonville for about 23 years. I usually drive home a few days early and then ride up to TOSRV with a few homeboys from the EBC, my old club.
