    my ride today



    I went to the new river gorge today. I only live about 5 miles from there and have never ridden under it. What a nice ride!

    That is a beautiful area! My very first long distance ride was to that area. Had a company white water rafting trip on the New River. Rode from Cincinnati down to Beckley with very limited highway. Still one of my favorite rides.

        Definitely will. That ride was in 1988 IIRC. So it has been a while.

            yeah it would be rough in a truck for sure. The road under the bridge is one way cause it is so skinny.

              Jeff I wonder how crowded it is on that road when they have bridge day. Probably be a great spot to watch the bungee jumpers from.
