Hey...

Hey Steve,

My name is Jim, and I'm a native Michiganian ("Hi Jim.").

I rode the OHR in 2011 in conjunction with the Third Annual Fifty-Plus Ride, where I met Irwin and a few others. The family is thinking about a summer trip to Michigan in early July this year, with the intent of riding the OHR. I really need a goal to train for. If we get a contingent together, we could label it as a Sixth Annual Fifty-Plus Ride.

No minimum number of riders, other than at least one besides the “host.” After the ride there should be some narratives and photos of the event (“without pictures, it didn't happen”). Then the ride should be recorded in the Chronicles. It would be helpful to keep all the suggestions for a Ride on one single thread...
BTW, one of the Fifth Annual Rides last year was in Boston, which Irwin attended, and we’re intending to reprise it on the weekend of Saturday, July 26.
