Title: Some ride pics from 4/5
Post by: the_Journeyman on April 06, 2009, 05:56:12 PM
Took a short "get to know you" ride with Syreena Sunday.  Only three pics, but it was fun.  It's snowing now.

The sign explains where I'm at

A sign that makes me grin every time I see it

I know it wasn't many, but it was such a nice and traffic-less day I really had a hard time convincing myself to stop and take pics.

Great pictures!

I was on the BRP a couple years ago and it was cool.

The signs that are in your picture make me smile.  Every time we'd pass one we'd all throw both our arms up in the air as we went by [laugh]

Yea, I did a couple of trips up Hwy 28 to Highlands, NC this weekend.  It was beautiful, but a little bit windy.

I haven't been able to ride for the past few weeks, due to a very painful bum hip and left leg, but a big dose of "I'll give you a heart attack, but you bones won't hurt do bad" NSAIDs and it was bearable.  The ride was GREAT, addictfully sinfully so. 

Thanks for the pics.

And it is snowing on the BRP tonight.

You should put a few of those in the Duc in the Wild thread that I started in the General Monster Section.

That's funny - I looked over this thread quickly earlier and missed that - here, lets make sure that that sign stands out a bit more.....

That sign is the best.

Either people crash there alot or there is some serious stunt riding up ahead.

Next time I'm out with someone, I'm gonna park the bike and stand on it and imitate the sign...  The park rangers would love that  [laugh]
