Central Appalachia Ride

The end of the summer is a great time to get out and ride. For the last few years I have taken a week in September to just hit the road in search of whatever is out there and this year was no different. Last week I headed out across PA and then cut down into Ohio, West Virginia, and Kentucky in search of twisty two lane blacktop and found plenty of it out there. Here are a few pics from that trip.

Directions.

Surveying the damage from my first time laying down the cycle. Panic stop for kamikaze dog. Dog and I are fine though the 599 has a few new scars.

Fresh pavement.

Mountain passes kick ass.

    Looks like an awesome trip. There are so many great roads out that to just lose yourself on.
