Take me home country roads


WV country road, originally uploaded by bikerphoto.

Over New Years weekend my wife and I went home to WV. While there I got a chance to do some hiking in the woods, and took a few good shots of an old grist mill that my wife's family owns. Sorry I can't show shots of the grist mill, because they are copyrighted for future sale at fundraising events. The family is raising money to rebuild the grist mill. It was originally built and operated by my wife's great grandfather.

This picture is on Ellison Ridge Road in Summers County WV. I always loved backroads in the mountains.

Great shot. This road is just begging for a motorcycle to ride it.

I've got a "regular" on my motorcycle bulletin board who lives in West Virginia. Looks like he's a lucky guy if he has a lot of roads like that to ride.

Having grown up in WV, I am probably biased, but I think it is one of the best states for motorcycling.
