DAYTONA BIKE WEEK ETC
I feel like I properly broke in my new Honda Gold Wing with a 2,600-mile ride down to Florida—and what a trip it turned out to be.

COOTER'S PLACE, LURAY, VA
b003iimage.jpg Today was one of those perfect riding days. Maybe it was the sunny 70-degree weather, the cruise along Skyline Drive, the laughs at Cooter’s Place, or simply the good company—but whatever it was, it made for a truly great day. We enjoyed a beautiful ride down Fort Valley Road to Coot...

NEW RIVER GORGE "BRIDGE JUMPING"
I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the bridge jumping. They jumped from 9:00 am to 3::00pm, hundreds of jumps. I got carried away with the videos, but I just couldn't stop. I have heard the term "adrenalin junkies", well I saw them in action. Up close and personal. Some just jumped off...
