Ohio Boyz!

As you may know, a bunch of guys from Chicago, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Michigan met up today with some Ohio locals for a weekend of shredding.  After driving about 6 hours from Chicago in a fairly constant torrent of rain (4 to Chicago as well for me last night) to Columbus, Ohio, we met at our hotel and planned out where to ride for the night in order to avoid the rain.  We finally decided on Ollie's Skatepark, and drove two more hours (also in the rain) south to Florence, Kentucky to sesh one of the best indoors in the country.  Even though our session was short lived (thanks Tommy Daddono and Matt Rittler), we definitely had a lot of fun and a couple of us filmed a few tricks.  It was pretty crazy being at one of the skateparks I've been seeing in Midwest videos for a long time, and remember all the tricks that have been done there.  After we were kicked out of that place we got some supper at Wendy's, then drove the rest of the two hours home in, yes, more rain.  Tomorrow calls for a 30% chance of rain so we're all crossing our fingers that we'll be able to ride outside, whether park or street.  If not, Ohio Dreams will be next on the hit list.  Keep checking Midwest Scoot for more updates on what we're up to.
