US Bike Trip

On July 12th 9 of us headed to the US for a week long motorcycle trip. By the time I got home I had travelled over 4000 km. We went through New York, Pennsilvania, Virginia, West Virginia and Maryland. It was a great trip an the weather was perfect!!!

Lunch stop at the Dam Inn, where we had some dam food served by the dam waitress:)

On your marks....

The stadium holds 120,000 people

This place was neat. I've never seen a radio wave telescope.

The radio telescope below is huge. It is 485 feet tall, 17 million pounds in weight with a 110 meter reflector (bigger than a football field). It is the worlds largest steerable radio telescope.

I just loved this sign....

Entering the Blue Ridge Parkway. Beautiful views...


Another shameless photo of myself.
