that's exciting

That route looks a bit kinky, Mr. Jacob. You should fly all your friends out there and rent them bikes so that they can ride with you!

Would 100cc dirt bikes do?

Looking forward to a ride...so far work feels OK. Makes me more desperate to ride holed up within walls with crazy stuff...

I have been referred to few other crazier ones...This one would be just 142 miles...Google estimates 3 hrs 42 mins. We may take longer?

Great ride today

, just missed company- my fellow Hooligans at NMMR!

Ride report (About 200 miles, 4 hrs): Left Morgantown, WV to New Martinsville, WV on Route 7, returned on Route 20, Country Road 15 aka Wiley Fork Road, Country Road 64 aka Long Drain Road, Route 250, Route 7 and back home. It was windy, up and down, sharp right, sharp left, drop, climb...more technical than one can imagine! One turn towards left had me brake so hard, my rear must have been 1+ ft in air and the front chopping==scared the shite out

!!!never seen a 90 degree left that fell like a water fall!!! The roads were mostly perfect except for the country road which was quite an adventure & challenge...paved but nuts! The scenery can only be appreciated in person, breathtaking beautiful in fall colors, streams ran along the roads and the smell of fresh wood was heavenly! Again, I missed company and wished so much that our crew was together! Enjoy the pictures...
