BINGO!

And now that everyone has seen a pic, there is NO reason to ride there.

You've got to be half starved to choke down breakfast or a bison burger at the Paint Bank General Store.

The chow at the restaurant in Hungry Mother State Park isn't much better

And the roads and scenery suck too

Don't know why we try to go back there twice a year

Yes, we ate breakfast there and it was really good. Very memorable place.

Here's an odd pic an hour before we got to Paint Bank that morning as we crossed the New River by Eggleston:



We weren't sure what we were getting into

I know the feeling. The first couple hours of this Paint Bank ride were in a cold fog. We made the steep climb up to Mountain Lake and broke out above the funk suddenly, where I found that the battery for my camera was still at home. Stole this pic from the other guy riding with me

I wasn't able to make out the wording "within the red circles" - but I was going to guess a place in West Virginia on Hwy 219 that I've been to with Intech.  Was I warm?

 
Pants, it's the Paint Bank General Store in Paint Bank, VA. The restaurant inside is Swinging Bridge. It's on 311 where it intersects Hwy 600

 
1911, those are great pics. I especially like the 4th one down with the scenery and the road. The fog pic is pretty bizarre. I'll bet if you posted that, someone would have guessed New Zealand or something.

 
There's a bridge with similar design in Flaming Gorge, but the landscape makes me think this one may be over the Colorado River on 95 in Utah?
