Wednesday 2/8/17 Ride... Damn it!

Unread postby Brick » Wed Feb 08, 2017 5:57 pm

Well it ended up just being Lee and me again. Of course Lee had a route. Some old roads to some new to me roads up around Dobson, NC. Never heard of Dobson and well I guess I still haven't seen it either. Some fun stuff. Here's the route and a photo.

You were up in 007's backyard playground!

Lee, you gotta get a beak for that bike. Brick's making you look bad. <muaha>

I already stated earlier to Brick that I would make no further comment concerning my opinion of the beak...

Fun ride and great day - hard to believe it's February. We rode east mostly along the south edge of Stone Mt then lunch at Putter's 2-3 miles shy of Dobson and finally returned a bit further south through Brushy Mt.

Here's another pic of the same thing.

The Samsung S7 camera is excellent and has an HDR setting that gets good imagery in shadow areas without blowing out the highlights. I also run most phone camera photos, including this one, through Photoshop to further bring out detail in shadows.
