Join the Team

If you love to ride…

If you enjoy exploring back roads and discovering new stops…

If you enjoy being part of the show, not just on the sidelines…

If you enjoying sharing your adventures and undertaking new ones…

If you enjoy helping others on the road or in your community…..

If you feel a connection with other riders….

You sound a lot like us.

And you might consider becoming a part of our family…

This year we brought teams to Daytona, Sturgis, Sandusky, Geneva, and dozens of other events across the state and Midwest. We stood side stage at some of the biggest concerts and worked hand in hand to help pull off some of the biggest motorcycle events.

We are actively looking to add Road Reps, Promotional Staff, Contributors, Photographers, and Area Managers all across the midwest. Some positions are paid and some are volunteer, but most are a blend of both. You can make a lot of money, but it takes work, dedication, and a real passion for working with others within the riding community.

We have both paid commissioned positions, hourly paid positions, and volunteer positions. It all depends upon what you’re looking for.

We are a family of good folks from a variety of different backgrounds. We have different interests and skills – but we all enjoy being an active part of the riding community. RTR allows us to actively contribute to this community – helping it grow and sharing the stories we’re a part of.

The first step is to email some information about yourself. Next, we need to meet up and talk. Then let’s hit the road together!

For more information or to start the process, please email us at ReasonsToRide introduce yourself. We look forward to talking.

MOTORCYCLE MINISTRIES

There’s a Reason for it…

Have you ever been putting something together that has a bunch of small parts to it and when you get all finished, there always seems to be this one screw or bolt laying there that’s just hanging out. Doesn’t seem to fit anywhere. It’s just there. What do we typically do with it? Well, Mr. G puts it in his mega can of leftover screws and bolts. I look at it and wonder what did I miss? It’s there for a reason. I must find out.

That is somewhat of a contrast to our own lives, isn’t it? Some times we can tend to feel like the leftover part of the machine. Unused, forgotten, maybe not talented enough or worthy enough to be useful for anything. At least that is what we have come to believe about ourselves. Maybe we have been told that by someone close to us as we grew up. You know, “Are you going to amount to anything, kid?” or “Hey stupid, didn’t I teach you better than that?” or “Better cross the street now because ugly is about to take over the block!”

All of these things said in a meaningless spout off of the tongue, cut deep into a person, especially when they are young and as you get older, it sticks, and you become what you were told you were. Stupid, lazy, worthless, and even ugly…at least to yourself when you look in the mirror. So, you begin to feel like the screw that doesn’t fit anywhere.

Well, I have some news for you…I found out something about the screws and bolts that don’t seem to fit. There is a reason for them and us! We are called the anchor screw. We are the final piece of the machine that holds everything together so that when things start running, they stay together when running! So, we have a purpose…

Want to know who else is an anchor screw? Of course, you do! His name is Wonderful, Counselor, Friend, yes…Jesus. He gave us purpose. He made it possible to be everything he created us to be and more because He wanted and still wants us to know that it doesn’t matter what anyone says about us, He believes in us because He, as the Father and Creator, made us in His image and likeness and therefore we are not just an old worthless screw, we are His children….His handiwork. And no matter how young or old we are, He loves us all just the same!

So, the bottom line today is this: There’s a reason for you and me. We have a purpose and a place to fill. Sometimes it takes a moment to find the exact place we fit, but if we listen to the right

voice, and allow His leading, we will find that place sooner rather than later and we won’t end up in a mega jar in a dark place with a bunch of other screws that didn’t find their place. Jesus’n’ME are keeping it together for you…

Catch you in the Wind

Sport Touring Corner

The Rise of Technical Routes

Last month's MSTA FlyBy Week report included commentary on new "technical" routes that turned out to be a big hit at the event. In the follow-up survey, technical routes ranked high in popularity, second only to twisty routes. Those two categories outranked destination, short, touring bike friendly, EZ navigation and adventure.

What are technical routes and how do they differ from twisties? In MSTA, we define twisty routes as featuring sharp curves and elevation changes with mostly smooth clean pavement. They are preferred by riders of sport and sport touring bikes

Technical routes share the sharp curves and elevation changes of twisties, but also include county roads that may contain potholes, patches, gravel on pavement, slips, etc that are severe enough to require a slower pace. They are perfect for riders of ADV style bikes, as they take you on little back roads with the most interesting terrain and scenery.

The evolution of technical routes

I began riding AMA enduros in 1967. They are a unique kind of motorcycle event- the competitive goal is to maintain a prescribed average speed, usually 24 MPH, over a route that is typically sixty to 100 miles in length. Riders leave the start, four on each minute, and there are checkpoints along the way where their time is taken and they lose points for being early or late. A route card is provided with some instructions but riders mostly follow arrows posted on trees and poles along the route. This sounds easy but the route contains off road sections with single-track trails, mud, ruts, rocks, creeks, steep hills, etc.

The off road sections are connected by dirt, gravel and paved roads and the events are held in rural areas, mostly in the southeast quar ter of Ohio. I rode enduros for over 20 years, and they introduced me to a whole new world of little county roads, farms and fun out of the way places. After the off road stuff became too difficult and I quit competing, I kept coming back to explore those areas on my road bikes.

My enduro riding was all in the pre GPS era and the routes never had maps. Often I finished events where I wanted to quit but had no idea how to get to the finish other than following the arrows. Going

back and finding particular county roads later was difficult, because the only way to see them on a map was to buy an Ohio county road atlas. This was an 11x17 soft bound book that did not fold easily and was almost impossible to carry and use on the bike.

When I joined MSTA and started attending rallies in the early 2000s, I bought my first GPS, which enabled me to mark waypoints and save tracks of rides. Garmin Mapquest ran on my computer and used the mapsets from my GPS unit, enabling me to see all the roads in any

14 Ohio’s Motorcycle Magazine Powered by ReasonsToRide.com

area I was interested in. I could see where I had been, see where other roads nearby went, whether they were twisty and put together new routes to explore.

My favorite MSTA event was the Mail Pouch FlyBy in Marietta, Ohio, which I started attending in 2001. By 2004 I was saving my FlyBy tracks, (still have the files!) Eventually I was creating GPS routes and helping the FlyBy route masters.

About 2010 my friend Jennie Kimes created a 160 mile twisty route from the FlyBy hotel to Hillbilly Hotdogs in WV. It was her first effortnone of us got to pre-ride it before the event, and it used lots of West Virginia county roads that turned out to be in fair to poor condition. That was okay- our group had a running joke- "No day is complete without some dual sporting" and sure enough one of the roads on the route turned to gravel. Jennie was terrified of the gravel but we all made it through. We all had a good time and I loved this route so much that I added it to the existing FlyBy routes for the next year. I was a little surprised by how much some people loved this route while others hated it, but each side had their reasons.

Sport bike riders complained about the route. Their bikes have thin seats, stiff suspension and low, short handlebars, so the county roads were much too rough for them. I had to put a warning in the route description.

Over the past ten years, a trend has been developing in MSTA, as many members have migrated to big adventure bikes such as the BMW R1200 GS, Suzuki V Stroms, KTM 1290 Adventure, Ducati Multistrada etc. They feature longer travel suspension, comfortable seats, wider handlebars and an upright riding position.

These riders loved Jennie's Hillbilly Hotdogs route and wanted more like it, so I created the "Technical" route category to distinguish these routes so those who are seeking them can find them and the sport bike riders can avoid them.

I love riding and creating technical routes and am delighted to have found an audience for them, so for this year's FlyBy Week I added some new technical routes based on some of my personal favorite roads that hadn't been shared before. As an added refinement, all technical routes will have the rougher sections marked with red flags on the event website's maps. Riders can see at a glance how much of the route has rougher pavement so they can make an informed decision.

Go to flybyweek.com to check out all the technical routes. An all new website that's optimized for phones and tablets will be live on Jan 1 with more new routes later in the spring.
