Great pics. That's one sweet looking Fat Boy. I sorta lost sight of the mountains in the background. Haha. Thanks for sharing.

looks like a great day to make the trip up the mountain, when I was there in 2013 it wasn't that nice.

I was supposed to ride To Cape Cod Today. (Friday) Then head to NH and ride the mountain. Monday or Tues. The weather channel changed My mind. I hope to get to Mt Washington late next week after the storms blow past. I hope for as Clear a day as You got there.


How long was the ride up and down? Was it an "all day" adventure?

My son and I spent a couple of days in that area earlier this summer. Sorry to say that day we were at MT Washington you could only see about half way up. We stayed at the bottom and rode on.

Thanks Rocker, I'm leaving this AM. I'll probably layover at the start of the Kangamangus tonight and tackle the Mountain Tomorrow. Steve

I think I may be there on Sunday with a group of friends. You never know with the mountain whether you get a nice ride, great view or a sphincter clamping event from weather change and folks in autos that don't know that they can run a lower gear than "D" and subsequently smoke their brakes.
