Washout

I know this isn't exactly c & v, but since I often ride my Fuji or Shogun here, I thought you might be interested in seeing the results of the rain infested past month on our local rail trail. Photo was taken on the first sunny day in almost 30 days.

York County (PA) trail that runs from York to Hunt Valley Md. These photos taken about 5 miles north of MD/PA line. Quite a few of our local highways looked similiar. I agree it does look like something Sherman (the general) would have done except he would have also twisted the rails!

THAT TRAIL? I have ridden on that alot, I have a good friend in New Freedom and we used to ride and walk on it often. I must admit though that I used to ride towards York more often as the return was downhill
