One last kick at the cat Oct 17

Hey all.
I'm in Bridgeport WV.
Plan is to ride around the WV / NC area for a few days.
Tomorrow I'll leave Bridgeport and take #20 all the way to Princeton.
I saw that there is some bass jumping going on in Fayetteville and I would like to stop and see some of that.
I'll then make my way to Wytheville VA and spend the night.

If you are in WV then you need to check out Ohio area. I am doing 5 days here and WV also. To many nice roads that will keep u smiling all day.

I'm in Ohio right now, in Middleton between Dayton and Cincinnati. Was a cold and wet ride today.
 
Hey all.
Wow it was cold today but a great ride.
I did #20 from Bridgeport to #60 then over to #19 and then to the bridge.
Thousands of people were here.
This really has become a big deal here.
Also #20 is an amazing ride...I'm so glad I took the time to do it.
After the bridge I did #16 to Princeton and that's where I'm spending the night.
Sorry no pics as of yet...it's too hard to load with just a playbook.
I'll post them when I get home.
Shane...for sure man ill have a look again it Monday as its suppose to be a great day here
18c and sunny.
If anyone is in there area please feel free to give me a buzz.
 
Morning all.
Just a short update....I'm just killing time till it warms up a little.
Below is the route I did yesterday.
#20 really is a fantastic road and you can take it all the way to Princeton.
Today I plan on heading to Wytheville.
Cheaper motels and it's warmer.
Tomorrow is suppose to be a great day and I'll ride around the area and take lots of pics
Shane ill check out that road and I,myself gonna have Subway at Hungry Mother St. Park :)

Just got back from Ohio - I love riding that area - Borders right on WV so it's just across the river and tons of amazing roads.
Weather was not the greatest but the one day was sunny and warm and got in some really get roads. The best road is the 676.
It is way better then the 555. If anyone is in the area you need to go check it out. Google maps doesn't do it justice.
I hope we still have a few nice days left as I have 3 more days to use up. I could do a 5 day again with the weekend added.

Kiley - If you take the 50 where u are now across to Marietta that road is just up the street. If you have time check it out.

Hey all.
Sorry I haven't posted.
Here is an update.
I am in Petersburg WV.
I was suppose to get the service done on the bike and stay in Wytheville.
After the service the sun came out so I just had to ride :)
So I made my way up here.
Too hard to post the route I took but highlights are #220 and Smoke Hole Rd.
I'm looking at heading towards Marietta OH tomorrow as the weather seems nice over there
Then maybe heading home Thursday.
Once I get home I will post a full report
 
Ya I remembered it from your report last year.
Gonna try and see Spruce Knob today but I think it would be better if the sun comes out :)

Hey all I'm back.
Came in late last night as it took longer to get home.
They had LAP closed off last night so i had to go around

So I wanted to leave on this trip last Thursday but ended up leaving Friday.
I blazed to Bridgeport WV and spent the night.

Saturday.

I had seen an add on the weather network about this Bridge Day and I knew i would be in the area and wanted to check it out.
I took #20 to #60 the headed over to Fayetteville.
The weather was dry but cool and cloudy.
#20 is a great alternate to Hwy#19 and i really enjoyed the ride.
Bridge Day is quite and event and there were tons of people there.
The idea is to jump and land down at the yellow triangle.
If you didnt guide yourself very well you would end up in the river.
After Bridge Day I made my way to Princeton WV for the night.
I took part of #16 and cant wait to get back and try out some more of it.

When I woke up Sunday morning it was quite cool.
Then the sun came out and it warmed up and turned into a fantastic day of riding.
















I stopped at Hungry Mother State Park but didnt have any snacks except for a pear that i grabbed from the motel
