Pix Please = YOUR BIKE + ABANDONED SITE
« on: April 17, 2011, 08:33:17 PM »

I thought it would be cool to post pix that included our CVO at an abandoned site or old historic site or just a cool rural shot.  *** PLEASE INCLUDE THE LOCATION SO PERHAPS WE CAN GO SEE IT TOO ! ***

My first one = an old abandoned post office on US 340 South in VA just inside VA over the WV line.  Fascinating that this was in operation just after the Civil War.  I'm sure in that part of VA and WV many vets used this post office.  DOOFUS

Abandoned gas station somewhere in WV during the CVO GTG at New River Gorge

LTBawb's and my 05 SEEG's

You can't see it, but just in view on the right is an old tire changer.

Don could have had one for free if he showed up to the rally.

Don't have pics sorted for this kind of topic.  But like the idea a lot.  Thanks for coming up with it.  Don't always stop for pics but nearly always at least watching for this kind of thing.  Especially old abandoned gas stations.

This one is on a stretch of the old original road bed of US 66 about an hour from my house.

An old abandoned gas station.  Though not an especially cool one.

Something else someplace else on the Old Road.  Only thing you see through the windows of this old building is the sky behind it.

This was on the trip to Cripple Creek a few years ago.  Old abandoned (mostly) advertising and social commentary on the side of US50 just outside of Dodge City, KS.

Not an abandoned building but an abandoned road.  Rode it right out on the old Sante Fe Trail.  Got so much traffic in its day you can still see the pack marks from the stage coaches that went west.

Yo Two Lane:

Just went by the old rock building on Friday.  Took the shortcut through Carthage to Springfield.  If the weather is good , going to ride th 3xred on the same road back to Springfield this Friday..

If you go far enough, you'll also see the old Mickey Owen Baseball School where I pitched alot of games when I was young.
