SS Dirt Gaps

Weatherman said 65 and sunny, how bout 55 and cloudy on the other side of the mountain. The plan was 40 miles and 4 dirt gaps in the Blue Ridge WMA. We were both unprepared for the weather, so we froze for about 4 hours.
Looking good early. Single, 29 and lovin every minute of it!
Heading up Cooper Gap, clearish skies
Heading to Hightower Gap, where'd the sun go?
Still smiling in the fog. Notice the T-shirt, it was the back up cold weather gear
Bikes chillin after a brutally cold 4 mile descent down Rock Creek Rd. to the Fish Hatchery
I missed a turn and added 10 miles to the ride. We stopped in Margeret for some coffee
Love the view. Hated the road. Becky got introduced to SSing on rolling pavement. No smiles. See the fog covered mountain. We came from there and have to go back over it. 8 Mile climb anyone?
The bikes earned there rest and so did Becky.
50 miles,4 gaps, 2 Moe's Burritos.
