Shreddin' the twisties



The AWR. So coined by personas known locally and internationally as "Pants" and "Slick." The AWR is the "after work ride." Couple of years ago, I managed to raz a co-worker into submission through ceasless nagging and ribbing. On a beautiful sunny day, I'd walk in wearing my leathers and go "hey man, where's your bike?" I did this about every other day for a couple of years. Finally, he went out and bought a CBR600RR. Probably did it just to shut me the hell up.



Well, today, we both rode to work. As such, we decided to do the AWR thing. Went down corridor G, then headed west on route 3 to route 34, and north to Winfield. Was a great ride. Even managed to get over on my tires a bit. I didn't put a knee down anywhere, but we were gettin' through the corners at a pretty good clip. Sometimes, the zen of a good ride on twisty WV roads is exactly what a man needs.
