Bike Rig
We traveled by night from Balto, MD to Gilbert, WV to ride the Hatfield-McCoy trail system. If we had planned better, we would have been there this weekend for Trail Fest, but the trails were still excellent. As a bit of a consolation, the trails had all been very recently groomed, so riding was at its finest.
This was the biggest trip for us yet - 9 guys, 10 bikes, 4 days, 800 miles away. We rode pretty much every trail between Gilbert & Man. The trails were great, the people were great, the accommodations were excellent (Hawks Riverfront Cabins). We really got to enjoy a part of Americana by witnessing the town parade on Friday afternoon.

If only... The battery on my 'Dale was dead when we arrived, after having been fully charged before leaving, and being connected on the bike for only 12 hours. I charged it up again, but it was dead again after less than an hour. Checked the voltage regulator and found that it was faulty, so... the Dale stayed at camp (fortunately it was 10 bikes and 9 guys so I rode the spare all weekend). But it would have been real nice to have another bike to soak some of the attention away from my cousin's Renegade.
