Ride Information
There will be two
distinct groups involved in this event.
Under 250cc bikes that will be competing
for Bragging Rights and a Trophy, and
unlimited size bikes riding along for
fun. For the smaller bikes, this will be
an all out endurance run to see who can
complete the trip in the shortest amount
of time.
The bikes will be divided into five
classes;
1. Unlimited 50's - if it started life
as a 50cc it's eligible and vintage
bikes up to 110cc.
2. 125's - up to 125cc and vintage bikes
up to 160cc.
3. 200's - up to 200cc, any Cushman
style scooter with a stock based motor
(no Cushman hybrids) and vintage bikes
up to 225cc.
4. 250's - up to 250cc. 250cc scooters
and vintage bikes with one carburetor,
must be street bike models only and
American spec bikes. No dual sports,
enduros or dirt bikes. If you are a
Canadian rider, you may ride a Canadian
spec bike as long as it complies with
all the other Class 4 rules.
5. Tourist class - any size, any bike.
There will be no authorized competition
in this class, it's a fun run only.
*** Vintage bikes will be bikes 30 years
old and older, or "like" models (no
"like" model for Class 4).
The LEL is a three day
affair that will begin and end in
Wellington, Ohio. All Proceeds are
Donated to the Aluminum Cans For Burned
Children.
We gather at the Clare-Mar
Lakes Campground, on
Friday. Saturday morning we'll
head out around the lake and Sunday
we'll hand out the awards. There is no official
route, all we ask is that every rider
leave Wellington, go through Detroit,
across Canada into Buffalo, then come
back to Wellington. You pick your
own route, ride safely at your own pace
and return as quickly as possible. There
will be a few checkpoints along the way.
The location of these checkpoints will
be revealed just prior to departure to
help ensure fair play amongst the
riders.
All participants must have a motorcycle
endorsement if one is required in your
state or province. Wearing of helmets is
encouraged and is mandatory in many of
the areas we will be riding and proof of
insurance must be provided. A passport
will be required at the border crossings
between the US and Canada. Failure to
bring a passport may bring very long
delays. All motorcycles and scooters
must have working headlights,
taillights, brake lights and horns. All
riders will be required to sign a waiver
release form prior to the ride.
