Cool pics. Haven't been on some of those roads in years.

Not sure how many people play the game, but this is the current Maryland ADV tag that I placed on Monday.

The bridge on Fishing Creek Road right at the intersection of Mountaindale Road.
Someone move this while there is still a little snow/ice. Show the ADV guys that DAMNriders have the skills needed for actual adventure.

looks like a good route - when are you taking us on it?

hmmm, might be a good route for an upcoming breakfast ride on the Mad Max FZ-09?
are you declaring it warm enough to ride yet?

good job Bucho!
temperature wise, cruising down the road in the sun was one thing, but heading into the woods with that much snow was probably like riding into the fridge

What stinkin rain? It was warm today

Nice J, that is Prices Distillery Road right?

Yup, you know your water crossings. There was a "Road closed" sign & creek was high & fast, I didn't cross I'll definatly cross it when it's warmer..... or when I'm following someone

Ahh, maybe I better not ride with Bonehead tomorrow

About 12 years ago (before marriage and mortage) I had a pretty sweet BMW R1150GS. I used to work for Battley Cycles and they were supporting this BMW rally that was up near Thurmont. They asked me if I wanted to lead this GS ride. I agreed. The route they gave me didnt have a single piece of dirt on it. I felt that was unacceptable and I altered the route. There was only 4 riders I was leading. Two of them were very good riders. The other two were okay but had basically no dirt experience.
It was a rainy weekend. One of my course changes was to go down Prices Distillery. The water was pretty high (but not as bad as in the above picture). Myself and the two good riders we bopped right across.
One of the riders flat out refused to it. She said she couldnt. We rode her bike across for her.
The other guy had never done it before And was very unsure. We sort of talked him into it. After a little coaching from me and the other good rider. The guy went for it.
The second he started I knew he would fail. Feet off the pegs and wobbling badly. He quickly faltered in the water and got turned sideways and whisky throttled. He drove the bike up into the little side channel and dropped it. Luckily he didnt drown it but did bend his bars a little.
Im not sure if they were mad at me for altering the ride. But they never asked me to help or lead rides again.
