...MORE BRIDGES!!! :woohoo:

...For those of who who've been to the Hawk's Nest, you should recognize these shots. More than likely, you've taken shots just like them. :)

...Old bikes and old bridges (just like NJ, even though I'm in NY), perfect together! ;)

...Six inches, I believe. Trying to find out how old the damn thing is! Definitely just a one lane bridge. :)

...Here's another oddball bridge I hit yesterday for the 2nd time. Located in Flatbrookeville, New Jersey, according to Mapquest. It's in the area of Walpack and Flatbrooke. This bridge is in the middle of absolutely nowhere! Great roads for a nice ride through the forest. Just be prepared! I swear I hear banjos playing in the background every time I stop! The cement bridge seems so out of place. Like it's a highway. But, it's not. It's just some backwards ass road in the middle of nowhere. Just barely a 2 lane road. The old steel and wood bridge in the background has to be 75 years old if it's a day. Too much trouble to dismantle and drag out of the woods, I guess. Crazy! Old Mine Road is the name of the road, but it changes back and forth to Walpack-Flatbrooke Road. Just don't break down on this road. There's noting for miles around. The Bears will probably eat you before you get any help. If you don't get butt raped first! :S

Only thing I liked about that flick was the banjo gig. I told my daughter, "hey that looks like Chad your EX." She didn't think it was funny.
I did. :woohoo: He's a moron. :lol:
