Rosbys Rock Marshall County WV
Took the Hawk out today. Didn't go far, just get used to the new tires, having rear brakes that fully function and some time on a gravel road with the Kendas. I went to a historical place called Rosbys Rock. Took the following pictures.
"Rosbys Rock holds a special place in West Virginia’s history as the spot where the last spike was driven to complete the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad from Baltimore to the Ohio River, marking the first rail line linking the Atlantic coast to the Ohio Valley."

Remember, you don't stop doing things cause you get old, you get old cause you stop doing things.
Get yourself conditioned, then keep going.

it took me hitting the trails a bit last summer with my son-in-law to get my upper body used to it. hawks are not light. at least not for me!
