The view from the Bridge is amazing!
Thinking about going back for Bridge Day...

No, I don't fancy myself as a human YoYo.
I've Bungee jumped once and didn't like it.
I would BASE Jump it in a minuet but I'm not going to dump 3 - 4 grand into a Canopy and rig for a BASE jump.
I have over 300 static line jumps and over 70 Free Falls, all at the Army's Expense.

Unity Dam is located outside of Baker City, Oregon. A very nice loop ride out of Baker City consisting of Hwy 7, Hwy 26, and Hwy 245. You can see the dam maps if you go to the damtour website.

Ok, last thurs I was working (I sell Harley Davidsons). But Mon & Tues a co-worker & I delivered a new Ulysses to Hendersonville NC. I took my LT, left Ft Myers Fla 6:30 am Mon morning, we pulled in to Hendersonville at 9pm that night. It wasn't all interstates, we got to do RT 129 most of the way thru GA. Next morning turned around (swapped the Ulysses for a Heritage) and came back. Pulled into Ft Myers tues night at 11pm. About 1760 mi total. I've been reading the aftermarket seat comments since then, otherwise great ride & got paid to do it too!

Nice.
I spent a little time in Bend and found some great roads around there.

Hi Dave,
Love that picture of the WV bridge. Got lots of friends that make the annual jump off with parachutes. I actually grew up about 30 minutes south of the bridge and watched them build it. Used to have to drive an extra 30-40 minutes before the bridge was built. By the way, in answer to your question, heading to Va on Thursday. Left Fl Wednesday morning. Friday in Greensboro it was in the low 70's. NICE Now it's back to SC and then home to Fl next Saturday. Bike don't stay in the garage much. Dirty though!
