I was thinking about going to Bridge Day this year:

http://www.876ft.com/



I've been told it is kind of a cool festival.

Anybody been?  Any biker presence?  Any suggestions or advice?

BTW, I'm a spectator only.

Thanks for all advice.

Dave.

P.S.--As far as being a spectator only ... the guy starting at 1:22 in the
video (the one in the costume) looks WAY too comfortable ... look at the way
he goes off the end with NO HESITATION except to plant his feet carefully
and have a controlled jump ... that ain't me.

I wish I could find the time to go explore that region. My great great
great great grandfather and his Methodist congregation pioneered the
New River Valley (upstream, in southwestern VA) in the early 1800's...

The New River was once called the Wood River, after Abraham Wood, and
before that it was part of the vast Teays river that flowed through
Ohio and Illinois to the Mississippi 200 to 300 million years ago...

Now the New River flows through the gorge into the Kanawha, which
flows into the Ohio...


Take some time to ride the Blue Ridge?
