This is one of the "trails" Doug decided to explore:



But it was so overgrown even Doug declined:

Before we could rejoin civilization, however, we were confronted by an angry local "herbal" farmer:



Doug, having experience in such matters, handily beat him down then showed him who's who:

Rejected indeed.  After going up the overgrown road a bit further, I started to see young saplings with more mature trees and underbrush in the near distance.

Scratch was a difficult bugger to photo.  He always ran from the camera.  I think he's wanted in a few states.

I didn't take nearly the number of pictures this trip as I might normally. Not sure why; just wasn't feeling the shutterbug love this time. I was having too much fun riding and socializing. I certainly didn't want to break up the great riding on Tuesday's group ride by making lots of pic stops. That's A-OK by me. That was a fun ride, especially the return trip when everyone sorted out where they wanted to be in the pack.  Thumbsup

Wednesday I went for a 2-up ride with the wife, mellow pace, doing some touristy and sight-seeing stuff.

Wednesday's trip to the Greenbank NRAO. What's a trip to that place without the requisite alien pic?


You're no longer permitted to take digital cameras down into the site so I snapped this one from the observation area.



Thursday morning I got up very early and took a spirited ride over 219 to Marlinton and back.

My destination... those fog-shrouded mountains.


Twisties on a sport naked... yum!


219 is a beautiful road with sections of roller-coaster banked turns, these flat twisties (even though they're going up hill as a group), sweepers, beautiful scenic farm land... a little bit of everything.

Good group of mild twisties for polishing form and making sure your head is in the game


Took a break in Marlinton.


A cup of morning tea at The Greenbrier Grille (formerly The River Place) in Marlinton.


The return ride to Lewisburg from Marlinton. Stopped to snap an historical pic.

I think the common theme to this years Nationals was " I came, I rode, I barely took any pictures."  Here are a few random shots from my journey.

I finally made it to the top of the state after crashing trying to get there last year.





One last photo of note.  Take notice of the fact that even with the Guzzi's 20 inch seat height Chris still can't touch the ground. Twofinger

My pics will be in my ride report (currently, it's a work in progress)

I'm stuffing all my photos on my website rather then slowing down the load time on this thread even more.
http://www.cookieshouse.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_itemId=15550

My brother's (malbojah) are there too.

I took a bunch as we trailered out of town this morning, but I'm not sure how the highway speeds and the fog will alter the final product.

I'm STILL working on all the photo organizing, labeling, and uploading.  Not bad considering I sat on my camera and had to get a replacement one Tuesday afternoon.  Thank goodness Walmart was right there.  Did you know there are no Best Buys in West Virginia?  Trivia for ya...

Yep.  We have one in Morgantown.  I believe there are ones in Charleston, Beckely, and Huntington too.

Oh!  So I should have asked people instead of consulting the Best Buy website.  The clearance replacement camera picked up at Walmart filled in okay.  Next time I won't sit on my camera! EEK!
