Default $900 Find
So here I am riding by myself in the canyon. Decided to take some pics. What's that on the ground behind my front tire. 20" Gold chain that's what. Wow. Took the gold chain I found to a Gold dealer and got $900...

Maybe you should look in the riven for the body that it fell off of!


Sounds kinda suspicious to find a gold chain on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere...but maybe I've seen to many Columbo episodes...

Maybe bears don't eat the gold.
Lucky you.

Nice spot for a ride - and it looks like you've got a couple years worth of gas money there!

It was a great ride. Even when I found the gold I wasn't sure if it was real, just put it in my pocket and kept riding.
