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.

Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

Those are some funny signs!  [thumbsup]
Why do roaches always die on their back?

That because the survivors flip them over to steal their sneakers and wallets.

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

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]
