      Dave, around here bike / walking / outdoors stuff is a popular attraction. Maybe that bridge will stick around, and maybe it's the reason housing is springing up there. You know, the "nice location near outdoor recreation" ad copy that realtors love.

      Either way, it looks like a neat little bridge and cool photo spot.

        My beemerpunk kid seems to have talked all his buddies into getting adv bikes. I dunno why but he's very persuasive. 5 of us got together and spent the weekend just doing stupid riding all over central PA. Friday night the ride was snow and rain all the way.




        We camped at two different beautiful spots. One next to a nice creek, the other on top of a good sized hill.








        Here's where I tipped over. Made it through the creek but failed on the exit. Glad I had 4 young guys to pick the bike up.

          Rode down to Tucson to do a brewery walk of downtown and to hang out with my siblings. I didn't take many bike pics, but I did stop at the Tom Mix Memorial again. It is a mindful place, in the middle of a west that still looks much like it did when the famous cowboy passed on.

            Eli, next time you're coming to Central PA, hit me up! Don't have an ADV bike but I do ride a lot of forest roads.

              I will. The kids like to ride there so we'll probably be there again soon.

                  Nice day for a commute. Hoping I don't work another 14 hour day and I can enjoy this gorgeous day. 33'F on my ride in but the bike is running awesome.

                    Rode RT to my sons (Redmanson) house, the other day, to leave with him to ride to work and for a weekend trip to SE Ohio.

                    His Tiger1050 (2008?) had failure of starter clutch (they call Sprague clutch). I may not fully understand, but seems like the failed part can not be provided, have to purchase an entire new upgraded/redesigned assembly of the clutch and other associated parts, for lots of bucks, about half the value of the bike.
                    His response to that: Bought an entire newer Tiger 1050 and is going to be flying 2/3rd the way across country to get it later next week.

                    So I have been riding Shadow500. No pics - Yet.

                    Now my son reports the RT has a front fork slobbering a good amount - drat. Add that to all the expensive maintenance that thing requires . . . . . . .

                      Rode down to Tucson yesterday and back today. Only a 220 mile ride, but really pleasant.

                        Got out for an evening ride. 52degf When I left. Went Just out of town to the north, and to a beach that is out that way.

                        Then to the pier on that side of the channel.

                        Sun disappeared behind clouds on horizon.

                        48degF on ride home, which is usally okay for a short ride of 20 minutes, but bye the time I got home I was looking for ice. Maybe because of having with wet pant legs and socks and boots.

                        Good to get out for a while.

                          First ride of the season, 250 km. The switch to new quiet Emgo exhausts and 30 dB ear plugs have made my riding significantly more enjoyable.

                              The Bandit’s shakedown ride after checking the valves and a new chain involved a 250 mile round trip sprint to Charmayne’s place. Ran superbly but I didn’t have a lot of time to take pictures along the way though I found a few places I need to go back to.

                                Well, look who dropped by on his way back home from NC. After a day riding through hellacious rain, traffic, accidents, and gas fiascos, Jedz rolled into central PA last evening. The skies cleared, we went out for a great dinner, a short night ride. I almost got hit by a bat. Back home for beers and a BS session. And that quick he was gone again early this morning. The wife and I are happy to have you stay with us anytime. Nice to finally meet you, Justin.
