I've been thinking about the bridge.  I think that if we bring enough zip ties and duct tape we could fix it and get across :D

Great report!


Thanks for taking the time to write it up and take all the pictures.

I always enjoy reading when MotorcycleAlabama members get together for an event!  Thanks for all who work on it and for sharing it with the rest of us.

Wait a minute. All of ya'll together couldn't figure out how to get over that little gap in the bridge?  :o :D

It looks everybody had a pretty good time, minus a few minor mishaps. I was hoping to make it but just couldn't pull it off. Thanks for sharing the pics and report.

It's not that we couldn't figure it out, we just didn't have enough zip ties and duct tape :D

For those of you to chicken too ride up the rock wall (and that includes me :D), here's a pic of Al doing it back in 2016 on a KLR with 80,000 miles on it.

When I look at that wall now, I think "WHAT THE HELL WAS I THINKING?"

I have never seen that video before.  Thanks for sharing.

I found this video, shot in 2015, of Melony and I, 2-up, on the KLR coming up from the river.  It was dry that year.
