motociclista Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 (edited) I spent two hours chipping away the two-inch-thick solid ice on my driveway just on the chance I might want to get the bike out next weekend when temps get above freezing. On days like this, it's good to recall better times for riding. Fortunately, Accelerate online magazine recently published my little account of a ride down to Kentucky last summer.Story is here if you're interested.

motociclista Posted February 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 Thanks.I've had a few articles published in Rider. Should have another one coming up in the next issue or two. Not 100% sure which issue it's scheduled for, but I know they have it in the works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C-bus Posted February 8, 2011 Report Share Posted February 8, 2011 There was a piece published a few years ago about the loop going through Hocking and on to WV and back. Great work. He mentioned that he started in my community. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

motociclista Posted February 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2011 I haven't read this article yet,but I enjoyed your book,especially your write up on 555.A very accurate take on what it's like to ride that road.I'll be watching Rider for your article.Can you say what it's about?Thanks DRC! That's the best compliment a non-fiction writer can get: that he got it down on paper just like it really is.The Rider article that's coming up is about a fall camping tour of some of my favorite West Virginia roads (with a little bit of Maryland, Pennsylvania and Virginia tossed in). Still not sure which issue it's coming out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
