Just an idea! I'd like to propose the Indy/ Lafayette/ Central Indiana area riders do a "ride in" to Old Mill Run Park and campground in Thorntown, Indiana.
Here's a link to the basic directions and map from Indianapolis.
http://maps.google.com/maps?daddr=8544+W+690+N,+Thorntown,+IN+46071+(Old+Mill+Run+Park)+%4040.140552,-86.631566&saddr=Indianapolis,+Indiana&f=d&hl=en&dq=Old+Mill+Run+loc:+Thorntown,+Indiana&cid=40140552,-86631566,6357532439705035649&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=8&ll=39.953825,-86.394795&spn=1.671687,3.735352&om=1
There are better routes, of course, than the Google Maps routing, I used them for a reference to where Old Mill Run is at. It has nice camping facilities, by the way!
Let me know and I'll start setting it up!

Distance from:

Indianapolis: 40 miles
Lafayette: 30 miles
Bloomington:90 miles http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&saddr=Bloomington,+Indiana&daddr=8544+W+690+N,+Thorntown,+IN+46071+(Old+Mill+Run+Park)+%4040.140552,-86.631566&sll=39.953825,-86.394795&sspn=1.671687,3.735352&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=8&ll=39.652227,-86.407471&spn=1.678987,3.735352&om=1
Muncie, Indiana:90 miles http://maps.google.com/maps?f=d&hl=en&saddr=Muncie,+Indiana&daddr=8544+W+690+N,+Thorntown,+IN+46071+(Old+Mill+Run+Park)+%4040.140552,-86.631566&sll=39.652227,-86.407471&sspn=1.678987,3.735352&layer=&ie=UTF8&z=9&om=1

I'm assuming no interest

I'm interested but a week too late. I'm going to play hooky from work next few days and put in some non-commuting miles. Searching around on Indiana tonight looking for prior posts about some reasonable loops. I'm good for 40-50 miles this time of year, and for sure I'll go to center of Indy and back for one of them, but it's be fun to get out of town at least once, but I need a route I can ride without driving. I'll keep looking. Never give up, never surrender, by Grabthar's hammer . . . oh . . . wrong forum.
