LV Gorge Bike Rides


Northern Trail: Done, see the pictures below or the thread “This is why I get up in the mornings”.

Southern Trail: Done, see the pictures below.

Yes the human powered bike.

I will be eyeballing the weather and post a GO/NO GO the mornings of. The leaves are peak and I want to take advantage of every day. There are two rides scheduled. I’ll pick days with the MOST sun. I’ll update the blog the night before with the time.

Trail North: TrailNorth

Trail South: TrailSouth

I take many pictures so I’ll be stopping along the way on both trails.

Some quick snaps of the river.

Not sure what this was but there are always little structures you find on this trail. All made of stone so you can assume they were all built back in the 1800 or early 1900s.

After the frost the leaves started dropping like crazy. Gotta get those last few jaunts in before they have fallen.

I have quite a few snapshots of the trail (see TrailSouthAlbum the end). Nothing in the shot just a snap of the trail to give you a feel for what it looks like.

Yeah, yeah, always have to find some shrooms. Surprisingly there were only a few. Unless of course I missed most of them.

Had to sneak down to the river again, wanted to get a better shot at the bridge. Yes these are still in use.

Not sure what kind of moss was on the rock formation but it had a neat looking green color. I am sure it was something in the rock, the rest of the shots are of the moss wall.

I decided to move under the rock to get a better angle. I was dodging the water drops as I focused. Didn’t stay under it for long.

Played with the ISO settings on the first shot. It gave me a nice clear edge on the bark.

Yes, there was a lot of yellow.

I couldn’t resist crawling around on this rock. First shot give you a feel for what it looked like. The rest are just different perspective shots once I crawled out on it.

This is about the only red I found.
