And it would be here I made my oh chit mistake!  You can’t tell it in the picture but the lean angle on the bike as I parked it was way past my strength for the day.   :o

I had pulled over in a remote location for the image.  Tried several times to pick the bike up but no luck.  Just way to far for my abilities.  Had to get two young men that finally showed up to assist.  God Bless’em!

As my father would say, Keep Smilin’

The Mt. Washington Road was fun and if you are in the area, take the opportunity to go up it!

Along the route, I came across Jackson Covered Bridge also known as the Rockport Covered Bridge is located in the 'forgotten town' of Rockport.

Thanks for bringing back some memories. We rode there in '14. The road up and down the mountain can be interesting for sure. That gravel for a stretch was fine unless there were cars coming down that thought you only need about 18" of road on a bike. The 90* turn towards the top can be a bit unnerving depending on the fog at any given time.

Deb was fine on the back seat until we got above the tree line then she had her face buried in my left shoulder while at the same time had her right arm extended snapping pix with a point and shoot camera. Lots of weird pix and angles came off that memory card. Lol

I’m taking a bike trip to New England in September and planned on riding up Mt. Washington.  How bad was it navigating the mile of unpaved road on a bagger?

No issues.  You will be fine.

Day Eight Just Use The Compass ~ 250 miles

So, the night before I had laid out a plan and by the morning the plan had changed.  I decided to let my compass be my guide for the day and go with the flow…

Surrounded by the lakes in the am…
