In reply to Paul Ruby. We're both getting too old to be thinking about ice water immersions.

In reply to Steve Williams. I’ve seem people jump into icing water and not die (The Polar Bear Club) so I thought I wouldn’t die in the bottom of the icy stream. In a baptism ceremony of sorts I submersed my head in an icy winter stream. It knocked the wind out of me! I wont do it again.

KD. That’s Milheim Small Engine Repair. See Henry the owner and he will fix you right up with old lawn mower parts.

Take me to that lawn mower graveyard. I saw something in that picture I must have.

In reply to paul ruby. That would have matched your idea of being photographed naked under the water on New Year's Day at Bilgers Rocks. I think though it was probably good we did neither. At Bilgers Rocks the 10F weather would probably caused your heart to stop in the water. And on Elk Creek, you would have broken your back. Maybe I need to learn how to draw.

When I look at that photo of me on the bridge shooting my Honda, I can’t help but wish it had fallen over off the bridge into the stream just as you snapped the shutter. That would have been something. Paul

In reply to Kofla Olivieri. Those are nice areas to ride though they're getting more and more crowded all the time. I shiver at times seeing the Amish buggies braving traffic on some of the main arteries. Be well and ride safe!

In reply to amateriat. Your first statement is spot on. Any road will do but there are indeed ones that are more poetic. There's no end in poetic roads around here. Add special light and weather and even more venture into that territory. Longer pre-breakfast rides are definitely my preference. Makes the stop to eat a lot more fulfilling. We're all shiny happy people!
