Default Ravenna, Ohio

Hey, I've only been on the forum for a couple of months. Thought I'd throw it out there and see if anyone is from my area. Ravenna is about 20-25 min. from Akron and about 40 min. from Cleveland. I see C3's around town and was wondering if any of them were on the forum. :party: Cya later

What a small world. I grew up in N. Kingsville and used to go to Geneva On-the-Lake just about every weekend during the summer. Of course I live in a much milder climate now (Virginia Beach) but go back up to your part of the country every now and then but it has to be summer! :jester You can also find CF members near you by going to "tools" and then clicking on member locator.

This is strange. I just came back from Kingsville visiting old military friends. It was my first time there and had a great time-very nice country. We partied in Kingsville and Ashtabula. Anyone heard of the "Rare Cherry"? Anyway, I plan to make it back up there sometime.

Closest I've gotten to Akron was on I-76 and I-77 on the east side of the state; but that was in the C5. Haven't ventured to OH in my C3; actually, have never driven it outside of FL. I'll remedy that when I fix my internal oil consumption problem.

Raised in Forest, OH - Visit family there several times throughout the year.

talk about a small world...two years ago, was seeing a woman in Bryan, then the past year made trips to Erie, and always pulled off at N. Kingsville exit off I-90 to gas up...best prices on gas. I would put enough gas to get me to N. Kingsville then I'd fill up and continue to Erie.

If you get down to Wadsworth, Ohio (west of Akron, not far) we have a Vette get together every Tuesday at the BK on Rt. 94. Have some coming from Stow already. Not to much further from you. :yesnod: :yesnod:
