Come Ride With Whitey (3-wheelers need not apply)
I finally decided to take my camera along when I went riding. Welcome to the black desert:
Off to the hillclimbs
Here's one of the smaller hills what it looks like from the top:
And bottom:
Here's a pic pf my budddy's LTR450 at Centralia.
This is what happens to a place where there's an active underground mine fire burning for 40 years.
The mountain is completely on fire. The road is fucked up becuase the ground is caving in. And yes that is smoke comming out of the crack in the road. Anywhere in Centrillia if you touch the ground it feels hot no matter what time of year it is.
There's also a ton of other cool places but I didn't feel like stopping and taking pictures.

Yeah it was a coal mine. Um isn;t that in west virginia? I remember seeing something about it on the science channel or some ----.
Man I would love to climb some of those hills on my Kx. If it didn't need a whole trans.
