Sick, I'm good to go as long as it's before the 1st. of August (I have a command performance in NYC that first week in August). We could make it more than two days and a night if you're into a bit more adventure. Ain't it great to have time to play...I mean to ride. It's one of the few advantages of our advancing maturity.

The one nite loop should be enough. There's a buncha Deal Gap grade roads S/W of Beckley enroute to Williams, then it gets interesting. Say the word! Anyone else wanna go? Tom

I used to live down in that country many years ago when I worked the mines...I used to work with a guy that would parachute off of the New River bridge into the gorge until the coal company bosses stopped him because they had a big insurance policy on his head....
lots of class 5 whitewater down there too....here is Summersville Dam nearby just north of the gorge on Rt 19....they open those two big tubes and the Gauley River goes to raging I'd move back in a heartbeat I think

I just read it like he might have thought it was an upcoming ride this yr. Some of you guys do like to plan a yr or more ahead of time. I'd like to visit West Virginia. Chickens and pigs in roads, I've always heard it was pretty up that way. Hell, our coach is from West By God Virigina. |

nahh. Both legs are pretty short, but you don't wants to piss the man off! Little short hillbilly morkinforkin made over 4 million this year, though, in any event. Pretty good for being from West By God Virginia, or Georgia, or Alabama for that matter.

Yeah all the way up in the top of the panhandle, in Weirton. But now there is someone there I'd rather keep as much space as possible between us. Yes there is alot of nice riding in the whole Tri-State area up there.
