ParticipantI’m in. Will probably need to keep these things easy as there are not a huge amount of us on this board. Now I just need to find a covered bridge in WA….

ParticipantDoes “covered by another layer of bridge” count?

Participantfound a website that lists covered bridges in WA and lo and behold there is one not far from one of my favorite stamping grounds. The map is a little unclear how to get to it so I may have to ride around some folks back yards to get there
Now if only I can be sure there will be no ice around tomorrow…

ParticipantPreferably covered bridge with roof structure and windows on the sides.

ParticipantNever got a chance to get out today. Won’t have another chance till next weekend what with our short days here and having to work and all. Have a feeling this is going to be a slow moving tag-o-rama….

ParticipantI’m in on this, sounds like fun. Soon as I get the forks sorted on my FZ-1 I know where’s there’s a covered bridge real close to here. And! I even already have a perfect idea for the next tag! Be back with ya when the freezing rain goes away and someone figures out why my right fork is frickin’ -bleeding- oil past the crush washer in the leg and down the axle.

ParticipantWent out to find this little puppy today..
but could not find it. I thought I had it in my GPS but did not. Turned out it was down one of many private roads and I did not want to start riding up and down them all hunting for it. The fact it was starting to snow also had some influence on my decision.
But, it did get me out and about. When I got back close to home there was blue sky so I took the opportunity to ride around some of the parks we have here (Seattle). I hit more 180′ hairpin up-hill turns today than I have on any mountain ride. I had an absolute blast. I’m going to go exploring these roads some more to see if I can put together a couple of hour ride of non-stop fun, and it’s all on my doorstep

ParticipantThe tag requirement clearly states: “a motorcycle and a covered bridge.”
You’ll have to include both in your tag picture.. I don’t want to be so specific that your MP3 is not considered as a motorcycle.. but if you include your MP3 in that covered bridge picture, that would be acceptable.

ParticipantI wasn’t trying to claim the tag, that picture isn’t even mine. I was just pointing out I tried to get a picture. Up till yesterday it was only you and I playing the game. If XRayHound does not snap his picture within the next week I may be able to find another bridge next weekend. Unfortunately it is not a pretty one, a concrete monstrosity over a busy road but it does meet the requirements. I *should* be able to find that one.

ParticipantI didn’t honestly think that there was anything like that in Jersey but google is my friend and I think I found one about 10 mikes out. I might be brave enough to try that before we get the shit storm on sunday.
The roomie and I took off for TGIF tonight and rode in the dark- excited to get out and ride even if in the *limited* visibility- it was better than fighting 5 oclock traffic at any one point.
The little wings are growning so maybe I’ll get to play this game after all!

ParticipantThere are about 20 covered bridges in NJ.. according to: http://www.dalejtravis.com/cblist/cbnj.htm

Participantthats the list I found last night.

ParticipantStill no forks and I’m training for a new job (MONEY YEEEEAAAHHH) so we’ll see if the weather holds until Friday.
