I'm sure the scenery is fantastic. But I'm with you on this one Tim.
It doesn't appear to be the type of place I would want to go.

Did you see that bridge that goes out of the mountain and then back in?
How the hell do you build something like that ![]()

Sorry Tim , I should have mentioned that . On Sept long weekend my wife and I were out for a nice day trip and then we decided to make a stop for a break . I was about to park when a vehicle backed out in front of us . Long story short , the bike went down on some gravel . My wife was ok and there was no damage to the bike . I ended up with torn muscles/tendons in my knee and a broken tibia .
Now that it's winter I've got at least 5 more months to heal . After 10 years of riding this is my first incident . I guess it could have been a lot worse . I've got a lot of miles to make up for next season . ![]() |

Where's your adventurous spirit? LOL! Definitely not my top choice of roads either.

Sorry to hear about your accident.
I thought it must have been accident related at some point Ridefree.
