“Country Roads” Region 6 Spring Meet – May 4-6, 2012

[R Doug]

I loaded a route also.  Looks like Friday morning from Moorefield down Upper Tract, to Smoke Hole road, down to Seneca rocks, Spruce Knob, Helevitia, down 250/219/92 to 250 to 28 to Boyer. Saturday hitting the eastern side of Wv into Va that Garry pointed out in an earlier post in this thread I believe. Both routes are under 250 miles because I got the wife with me.  

My Saturday route takes me through Helvetia in hopes I'll be there for lunch.  Perhaps we'll cross paths.  

My Sat. route is just under 250 miles too but it's 50% dirt, so it's going to be a long day.

been thinking...

You gotta go deep
Way on back
Cross a few creeks
And a couple little shacks
You gotta get lost
Way on out
Crickets and frogs
Yeah you’re gettin’ close now
And when you run out of road
And you go, and you go
‘Til you hear banjo

[Cablebandit]

Over the river, around the river, and through the creek.  Wait'll you see The Bridge

I may have some...........................

trouble.

With enough rain you may need your kayak to cross the bridge.

Some folks may not get that reference, so here's the music video complete with tall boots, a short skirt, and a banjo!

Well I'm awake now.

[Mr.Black]

Someone post a pic of this bridge.

[Cablebandit]

From Garry's Potomac Highlands ride last spring.

[Mr.Black]

There is a definite lack of bridge in that photo.

I was expecting something much taller and dryer.

[Cablebandit]

Better?




This pic is a few years old.  The are a few boards missing these days.

[Mr.Black]

Now ya see, this is ok. I would cross that with no problem what so ever. Even missing boards.

This is what gets me,

[MrsCablebandit]

Oh! That bridge? That's on Saturday's ride.  

[Mr.Black]

Oh! That bridge? That's on Saturday's ride.  

I just broke my arm.

I'm out.

See you next time in..... oh...... lets say....... Kansas.

[Cablebandit]

We could always hit this one.



Not much to see from the top.



Luckily there's a goat path that goes under it.

That IS the one I thought you were talking about. No joke. I would probably have to bail, pissing myself.

It's not called the "low water" bridge for nothing ya know...

[Cablebandit]

The water was not low that day.

The problem i see is that there is no resemblance of any sort of bridge.

It's like Prego spaghetti sauce: it's in there... :-)

[Mr.Black]

Look, lean, believe.

Slip, splash, sink.
