Hey all! I had a little free time so on Friday I screamed down to EOM in West Virginia. I left my house at 7:45am and landed at the Brier Inn at 7:35pm. I know what your thinking "what took so long". Well I stopped at the border for breakfast and picked up some duty free beer.
This is Niagara Falls. The view is from the duty free store.
So I pretty much super-slabbed all the way down. At the first toll both I was behind a girl in a two seater Mercedes, well we played road tag all the way to West Virginia. She'd pass me then I passed her. You get the idea so we became a team of sorts, a 2 vehicle Cannonball Run. It kept my mind busy for the long trip. Anyway when I pulled off for gas at hwy55 off US19 she gave me a wave and a thumbs up. My reserve had started started blinking a while back so this was the first exit I came to. Well guess what? No gas station to be seen so I keep going. As I round a turn and crest a hill the bike starts to chug! Wow what luck as I rolled into the Sunoco at Craigsburg!!! So I took the back roads from there into Louisburg. What an awesome route. I settled in and went out to meet whoever would talk to me and set up some rides for Saturday. My riding buddies will be Steve ,Fred, and Mark. Later we picked up Scott and Donna.
This is how it looked when we took off. Didn't look to promising.
It didn't take long and things were looking up.
This road was just a single lane wide and twisty. Thankfully we only passed one truck!
A large group of us ended up at The New River Gorge bridge. The route that goes under the bridge was closed due to a malfunctioning barrier so we missed out on that little piece of road
Lunch was here and we were served a wild game lunch. Elk and Buffalo burgers. MMMMMM very nice!
This guy wanted a piece of me. Is he ever lucky I'm good natured.
Our ride was fantastic. I only managed a couple of shots of the scenery.
This was the scene back at the Brier Inn. I never get tired of seeing this.
This was Jason going over a few things at the dinner. What a day, what a night. Thanks to the Organizers for running a great show.
