Hard to get a shot of yourself riding, but lucked out with one of those photo services that hide along the road. Shot on Hwy 129, The Dragon, riding my old RT. It has since been sold for a new 08RT. Still miss that bike.

Swinging Bridge

If you ever take a suspension bridge, and a dude named Mad Jack tells you to go like hell, listen to him. The bridge has a slingshot or hammock effect when 600 pounds of bike and rider gets to the center and the stretch is loaded, you want to be almost off and not dinking around in the center trying to do a slow race.
