    Hairpins? How about those what I can only describe as "corkscrews" on 16A where the road spirals over itself by use of a bridge. Those 3 one lane tunnels all provided a direct sight lines to Mt. Rushmore in at least one direction. Who ever designed that road was having too much fun.

    I was kicking myself so much that I didn't purchase a GO PRO.

    Watching riding videos is mesmerizing to me and I've already been longing to see some of the roads again.

    For the ride by next summer I need one.

    Oh, and I'm leaning to Death Valley, PCH, to British Columbia to home. Then I would have ridden every state but Florida, Alaska, Hawaii.

    Those were easy compared to the hairpins on 87 with the wall. :)

    The best therapy.

    I spent several hours on my moto today after being on him about 3 weeks. If I weren't single, I'm sure I'd of gotten some third degree.

    Pays to be single or be taken by a moto enthusiast too!!

    Yeah. It goes a little beyond that too ... but I'd need a therapist to help explain.

    East coast VFR "heaven" I guess would be:

    VA-16 Marion to Tazewell
    Rt. 58 between Damascus and Volney
    Rt 421 through shady valley NC.

    Seems like that was the reason for the latest set of nuisances. So silly neither of us didn't think to do that simple inspect. I know now what to look for first.

    No fits today. :)

    Hopefully between new battery, checking and greasing connections, fixing clutch lever switch, taking phone charger battery tender thingy off, and cleaning the ground wires, he'll behave now.
